Buhusholmen Anchorage
✨ Hidden gem
Buhusholmen is a scenic natural anchorage tucked among the skerries just outside Lillesand, one of the most charming towns on the Norwegian Riviera. You drop the hook here and get the classic Southern Norway experience — smooth rocks, clear water, and easy access by dinghy to Lillesand's picturesque town centre with its white wooden houses, restaurants and shops. No facilities on site, so come self-sufficient and enjoy the peace.
