Experience one of Norway’s most unique winter activities in Norheimsund on the Hardangerfjord. After a short safety briefing, your guide helps you into a warm insulated immersion suit with hood, gloves, and boots. Then you step straight into the calm fjord from the shoreline and float safely and comfortably on the water.
This is not an extreme activity and no swimming skills are required.
The suit keeps you warm, dry, and naturally afloat, so you can simply relax and enjoy the peaceful winter scenery. Most guests spend around 25–45 minutes in the fjord, with the guide close by throughout. After the experience, warm drinks and light refreshments are served by the water.
A fun, safe, and memorable winter fjord experience near Bergen.

What to expect
The activity starts onshore, where guests put on insulated immersion suits designed to keep them warm and safe in cold water. Once everyone is dressed, the guide gives a short safety briefing and explains what to expect during the session.
Participants then enter the fjord together from a sheltered shoreline. While floating calmly on the surface, guests can relax and enjoy the winter landscape — but there is also room for fun. Those who wish can jump into the fjord and experience the refreshing sensation of cold water in a safe and controlled environment. The guide stays close at all times to ensure safety. Total floating time is 30-45 minutes.
After the floating session, guests return to shore, where they can warm up with hot drinks. The guide also shares photos and videos taken during the experience, giving travelers lasting memories to take home.
