Cruise along the breathtaking Norwegian fjords
The fjord landscape is beautiful, but make sure you have a good planning when you go sailing to explore the coast of Norway. There are small villages, anchorages and towns, but due to the great distances and circumstances along the way, attention to detail is required when planning sailing trips. The wind can be unpredictable in the fjords through the fjords or suddenly rise from the mountains. That is why good seamanship and well-maintained boats with well-maintained engines are essential.
