Bring the whole family on a summer vacation for an exciting adventure in the beautiful archipelago off the coast of Brevik and Langesund! Imagine the fun of island hopping! And it’s easier than you think. You can take a ferry to different islands from the harbors in Brevik, Stathelle, Langesund, and Helgeroa.
You can enjoy lovely day trips and stay on a round-trip with the boat, or you can disembark and explore the islands. But you won’t be able to visit all the islands in one day. You can easily stay overnight for a night or two, either in a tent or at accommodations offered by locals. You can wander around and explore the islands, bike along idyllic paths and roads, swim, fish, dine at restaurants, and simply enjoy life and the peace and quiet. It’s all up to you and what your family feels like doing. The islands vary greatly in both appearance and the offerings available.
Experience Porsgrunn and Bamble
Porsgrunn, also known as the city of sailing ships and porcelain, is a town with proud industrial roots. Here, you can enjoy a fascinating mix of modern architecture and charming wooden houses along the riverbank. Visit the ice cream town of Brevik, known for its rich history and charming alleyways.
For nature experiences and coastal relaxation, Bamble is the place to be. With its beautiful beaches, rocky shores, and islands, the coastline invites you to take peaceful walks along the coastal path and go island hopping to explore the scenic landscape. Take a break from the coast and discover the beautiful inland experiences along the Herre river system and on one of the many peaks in the area.
