    The formalities for travelling to Sandefjord

    • Entry requirements : Norway is not a European Union member state. However, it is part of the Schengen Area. What’s the advantage for you? As European citizens, you only need a valid passport or identity card to enter the country.
    • Currency : Norwegians make their purchases in kroner. One Norwegian krone is worth around ten Euro cents. Remember: there are Interchange counters in both terminals of Nice Côte d’Azur Airport, where you can find out the exchange rate and buy currency so you have cash to hand when you first arrive.

    Your Nice-Sandefjord direct flight

    For nearly a century, Widerøe has been helping Norwegians reach new heights. Now, it is offering Riviera residents the same opportunity, flying them to Sandefjord from Terminal 2 of Nice Côte d’Azur Airport.

    Don’t miss out! To get through security checks smoothly, you should aim to arrive at the airport at least one hour before take-off, as long as you already have your boarding pass and are travelling with cabin baggage only. If not, you will need to arrive an hour and a half before take-off, to check in or check your baggage into the hold with zero stress.

  • The delights of a Norwegian summer

    See more See less

    Norwegians operate in “in and out” mode. In winter, they turn their homes into a cosy refuge. And in summer, they live outdoors, seizing every opportunity to get together and enjoy being in harmony with nature. Try out their method! Take advantage of your holiday in southern Norway to discover how the locals live, sharing the simplicity of their daily life, the original flavours of their meals, the laughter and traditions of their festivals. Allow yourself to be overwhelmed by the sheer vastness of Norwegian nature, the beauty of the fjords and the calmness of ancient forests. Experience this harmonious lifestyle as a pair, enjoying romantic strolls along the fjords or through the picture-perfect villages in Telemark county. And be sure to include a touch of fantasy, street art, Viking boats and a zoo... for a family adventure bursting with feel-good vibes! If you fancy adding a little partying into the mix, bring your friends along to Norway’s biggest beach party in Bystranda - with all-night sunlight and music to dazzle the senses.

    • Get an insight into the daily life of whalers. Whatever your feelings on whale hunting, Sandefjord commemorates its past sailors through its Whaling Museum, or Hvalfangstmuseet, the only one of its kind in the world. You can even board a real whaler.
    • In Oslo, discover Norway’s most famous artist: Edvard Munch. The museum devoted to him has over a thousand of his works, including the famous “Scream”.
    • Berth at one of the peaceful islands in the Oslo fjord : Langøyene, Gressholmen, Heggholmen, Hovedøya… On the agenda: beaches, ancient ruins and hytte, cosy cabins where Norwegians set up camp in the summer.
    • Meander through Telemark, a microcosm of the essence of Norway itself, with its lakes and lush valleys, loft spaces and stave churches made from standing timber - tangible reminders of the Middle Ages.
    • Make your way to Skien and sail along Telemark canal, from one lock to another: a wonderful trip along such an outstanding feat of construction that the natives called it “the eighth wonder of the world”.
    • Stroll through the old neighbourhood of Posebyen, in the heart of Kristiansand, the Norwegian city with the most “southern” feel. Look out for the lovely wooden houses and cute shops.
    • Take some time out in the shade of a palm tree on Bystranda beach. Skagerrak, the maritime strait running between Norway and the Jutland peninsula of Denmark, has hints of the Mediterranean.
    • Up the temperature a few degrees by relaxing in the heated pools of Aquarama in Kristiansand. This water park also offers a spa and a surfing pool, so even first-timers can have a go.
    • Why not be part of Palmesus, Norway’s biggest beach party held every summer in July, in Kristiansand on Bystranda beach. You won’t be alone: tens of thousands of partygoers head there every summer!
    • Sit down to dinner, or middag - the main meal of the day - with the Norwegians, at teatime (between 4 pm and 6 pm)! On the menu: fish, of course, with salmon (preferably wild), herring and cod, but also meat dishes such as fårikål, a kind of lamb stew, and finnbiff, a creamy reindeer stew.
