Ny-Hellesund
Drop anchor off Ny-Hellesund, one of the most storied and scenic island communities along the Vest-Agder coast — a tight cluster of old pilot houses and fishing cottages that has barely changed in a century. The setting feels almost suspended in time, with natural rock anchorages sheltered by the surrounding islets. In summer, you can catch the old route boat 'Høllen' running directly from Kristiansand out here, giving you a sense of just how connected this place once was to the wider coast.
