Must do's

Things we did and we think you should too...

Harbourside

Wander about the shops, try the catch of the day fresh off the boats, try smoked trout and hot smoked salmon wraps in Kritiansand Havn, right next to the ship. If your lucky you might even catch the music festival.

Beep Beep!

Grab a Voi or Bolt electric scooter and zip up and around Odderøya. Scooters can be used all over the city, just remember to park them in designated spaces.

Fancy a Brew?
