Step ashore and visit the historical Skjerjehamn harbor on this half-day cruise out of Bergen. Enjoy a freshly made waffle, accompanied with a cup of coffee as you explore this island gem on foot.

Cruise down the coast through sheltered waters and stunning scenery as the boat whisks you from the bustling city life in Bergen, to peaceful and quiet Skjerjehamn. 

In the early 1900s, Skjerjehamn was one of the largest harbors on the Westcoast of Norway. Today, it's a popular relaxation spot for those who love art, culture and good food.
