Our unique sailing adventures depart from four prime locations: Hjellestad Marina near Bergen in the southwest, Harstad and Kvaløysletta near Tromsø in Northern Norway, and Longyearbyen in the Svalbard archipelago. Whether you prefer bareboat sailing or a skippered yacht charter, Nopal Sea offers unforgettable journeys tailored to all levels of sailors.
Starting from Hjellestad Marina, just outside Bergen, you’ll sail through some of Norway’s most famous fjords, including the majestic Hardangerfjord and Sognefjord. These deep, glacially-carved fjords provide stunning scenery with towering cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and charming coastal villages. Our sailing routes from Hjellestad are perfect for exploring the heart of Norway’s fjord district. Along the way, you can hike in lush national parks like Folgefonna, where glacier trekking is possible. For wildlife enthusiasts, this region offers excellent chances to spot sea eagles, seals, and occasionally whales in the fjord waters.
Choose a bareboat charter if you want full control of your sailing adventure or opt for a skippered yacht to relax while an experienced captain navigates the fjords. Both options let you customize your itinerary with stops for hiking, kayaking, or exploring local culture and cuisine.
