Ports of Call
Cruise from Southampton
- Stavanger (Norway): Stavanger has old-town clapboard lanes beside a modern harbour. Take a Lysefjord boat for sheer rock faces or visit the Petroleum Museum. Cafés and galleries cluster near the quay. It strikes a balance between fjord access and easy city exploration.
- Haugesund: Haugesund is a maritime town with island-dotted approaches. Walk Smedasundet and visit Haraldshaugen. Short hill paths and boat trips are conveniently located nearby. It sets a calm tone on the West Coast.
- Skjolden: Skjolden sits at the head of Sognefjord, with steep walls all around. Walk to Feigumfossen or follow a quiet shoreline path. Deck time rewards you with long, still views. The scenery feels close at hand.
- Olden: Olden is a small village with big backdrops. Ride the Loen Skylift or visit Briksdal Glacier. Lake Lovatnet offers gentle cruising. Precise logistics make the day straightforward.
- Ålesund: Ålesund has Art Nouveau streets spread across low islands. Climb Aksla for a harbour view, or visit the aquarium. Museums and cafés sit within easy reach. Architecture and outlooks share the stage.
