This is our middle-length RIB day tour, where we visit many gems in the Nøtterøy and Tjøme archipelago as well as the outer part of Færder National Park. We guide you on what we see along the way and pass many small lighthouses and well-known places.
The tour goes one way or the other depending on wind and waves. We drive the most comfortable direction in relation to waves and swell when we are offshore, to make it more comfortable for our passengers. In particularly rough weather we may have to change or shorten the tour to keep to the schedule.
The route
Vallø, Tønsberg, out Vestfjorden past Nøtterøy and Brunstad (Oslofjord Convention Center), past Håøya, between Tjøme and Veierland, out towards Hui, between the skerries at Stauper, then we head for Verdens Ende on Tjøme, and enter Færder National Park. We thread our way close to Verdens Ende and the National Park Centre (a meal and guided visit are possible for an extra charge) to Uleholmsundet between Hvasser and Uleholmen, catch a glimpse of Sandøsund before we go offshore directly to Færder lighthouse. At Færder lighthouse there is a landing and guiding, and we often see seals here. We continue towards Store Færder and tell stories, then keep right towards Hollenderbåen lighthouse on a longer offshore stretch, and point the bow at Fulehuk lighthouse (a landing is possible for an extra charge), pass Skarvesetet, and move close and slowly around Østre Bolæren (meal and guided visit possible for an extra charge), Kongsten Sund, Mellem Bolæren, Jense Sund and Vestre Bolæren (meal and guided visit possible for an extra charge), before we are back in the harbour.
This is a medium-length tour of about 3 hours (weather permitting) and about 50 nautical miles. We take time for one stop of about 30 minutes at Færder lighthouse, and we drive slowly and calmly in many sections so you can enjoy the magnificent archipelago.
