Visit Kristiansand - Lillesand to Kristiansand and Lillesand Fiskebrygga Norway
Lillesand is a beautiful little town just outside of
Kristiansand.
It is a very popular place to go to in the summer and have
some fresh seafood or some great fish cakes! Definitely try
them!!!
It is an amazing boat trip from Kristiansand to Lillesand or
to drive takes about 20 minutes. You follow the E18 from
Kristiansand to Lillesand.
There are a few restaurants in Lillesand and a few stores,
but it is a small quiet little town. The government is
intent on keeping it nice and local - meaning that you are
not allowed to simply have a holiday house in the city, you
must live there. This deters the wealthy from buying up all
the properties. (So we are to understand)
If you are interested in a boat trip there from
Kristiansand, there are a couple of different options. You
can take a ferry during the summer months or take a private
trip with a local (but this is of course more expensive). If
you take this option, then you could also do some fishing on
the way. Lots of makeral and other types of fish to be
caught! If you are interested in a
private
boat tour, read this page
There is also the M/S Maarten which can be hired privately
and has a capacity of up to 100 people but is around 4000NOK
per hour.
We know quite a few people that have taken the M/B Øya ferry
to Lillesand. The ferry is from from Kristiansand to
Lillesand and return from Lillesand to Kristiansand during
the summer months. It is the cheapest option but
unfortunately only stops in Lillesand for 1 hour. To check
when the ferry begins in the summer months, you can contact
the Blindleia Charter on the details below. We believe that
it begins towards the end of June.
M/B Øya is operated by
Blindleia Charter AS
Svåbekk 4780 Brekkestø
Telephone: +47 37 27 00 00
The boat trip takes 3 hours but you can take in some
beautiful scenery. The boat has a capacity for 60 people and
has a kiosk on board. When you arrive at Lillesand, there is
a 1 hour stay between the ferry going back.
