We are looking forward to repeat the success
During the Tall Ships Races voyage from Esbjerg to Stavanger there will be several opportunities for tall ships to take part in cruise-in-company events hosted by smaller harbours.
These events bring The Tall Ships Races to a wider region and offer participating ships revenue from hospitality events and regional trainees. There will be no harbour fees, and participating ports offer a range of activities for visiting crew.
Båly harbour in the southern municipality of Lindesnes hosted a successful cruise-in-company event in 2015. Lindesnes point with its characteristic lighthouse is Norway’s southernmost mainland point. The area is known for its outdoor life and boating activities, offering a range of different activities for locals and crew alike. Tall ships facilities include showers, spa and toilets at Lindesnes havhotell.

Activities and excursions especially designed for crewmembers
Experience the tip of Norway from ashore.
Lindesnes Lighthouse
Lindesnes Lighthouse is Norway’s southernmost point. Spend a few hours or stay several days. The weather, water and nature are all breathtaking. As a crew member your visit here, and guided tour with the lighthouse keeper, are for free.
Spangereid – the Viking town
Spangereid in Lindesnes was home to a number of Viking chieftains. Archaeological finds and excavations have revealed that in the Viking era, Spangereid was an important center. Join us for a guided tour to explore how the Vikings lived.
Sea Kajaking
Experience a part of Lindesnes not accessible with sailboats. Our guided sea kayaking tour takes you through the Spangereid canal, a replica of the one the Vikings build to avoid having to round the rough seas off Lindesnes. The canal was “reopened”, making it possible once more to take a boat from east to west without having to round the south tip of Norway.
Searafting
Join us for an experience that will really get your adrenalin racing! We take you out in the waves outside the tip of Norway in a RIB and shake you up on breakers and the crests of big waves! Our extremely experienced guides ensure a high speed experience focusing on both safety and having a good adventure.
