Special events
When are you coming? The area hosts many festivals and special events,
some of which - like the
Beach Volleyball competition in late
June - early July and the
Gladmat (Food) festival in late
July completely take over the main harbour area
in Stavanger and the town takes on a carnival atmosphere.
With canoeing, cycling, hiking, windsurfing, camping, sailing, swimming,
climbing, skiing (downhill and cross-country), skating, fishing and many
others to choose from - depending on the time of year, of course.
After all that
you probably want to work out where you would like
to eat, or relax, so ask our restaurant search,
or bar and cafe search for recommendations.
and have you got the best accommodation deal sorted out?
... you have if you used our hotel search and online
booking system.

Weekends, city breaks and holidays
We are now putting together
weekend and city break packages, with full holiday
itineraries to come |
Want to experience the scenery?
There are many ways to do that - active
or relaxing - with boat trips, ferries,
car tours,
organised coach tours, walks and hikes to choose from, varying in duration
from several hours to several days - with many stop-offs, to see salmon
migrating upstream, or visit a candle, wool or pottery factory shop, for
example.
Seeking culture and history?
There are many museums, galleries and exhibitions all over the area, with
many towns to explore. You could also attend a concert by Stavanger's own
symphony orchestra. Keep your eyes open, there are sculptures everywhere
- big, small, serious or light-hearted.
This is a great place for children
and we help you find family outings that they will find more interesting.
Older visitors can also easily find trips that will interest
them - but choose what YOU want, not just what we think may suit you!
Finally, we understand that many visitors have
small children, prams, walking sticks, wheelchairs, or electric buggies
. We try to
indicate those trips that are suitable, but of course this depends partly
on your own energy and sense of adventure.
