Kalvøyfjord

Kalvøyfjord is a sheltered anchorage tucked into the island-dotted coastline just outside Kristiansand, where you drop the hook and let the quiet of the Skagerrak archipelago settle around you. The surrounding skerries and low rocky islands give it a classic south Norwegian feel, with good protection in most conditions. Kristiansand city centre is within easy reach if you want to head in by dinghy or tender for supplies, food, or a wander.
