Discover Fyksesund, the only roadless branch of the Hardangerfjord, on a 1-hour small-group RIB safari from Øystese. Cruise from the open waters of the Hardangerfjord into a narrow and dramatic fjord arm surrounded by steep mountains, waterfalls, and quiet, untouched scenery far from the main tourist routes.
Along the way, your local skipper shares stories about the landscape, fjord life, and the people who once lived here. You’ll also pass the historic hamlet of Botnen, a remote settlement that was only accessible by boat.
With high-speed thrills, close-up waterfall moments, and a strong sense of place, this tour combines adventure, nature, and local history in one unforgettable fjord experience.
