Whatever Floats Your Boat

Whatever floats your boat Lovers of the life aquatic should be in their watery element if they pay a visit to Norway between June 28th and July 1st, where the town of Skudeneshavn hosts a huge boat festival.

This festival of coastal culture offers a big taste of maritime heritage, with vessels galore, crafts, exhibitions, wine tasting, historic tours of the old port and art.

Among its many historic and interesting buildings, Skudeneshavn claims to have the world's smallest cafe, so visitors should be aware that they may not always be able to get a table.

In addition to the novelties and timeless feel of this picturesque coastal town, visitors staying in cheap hotels can also enjoy the long, light days of midsummer, with the local sunset taking place well after 22:00 at this time of year.

Skudeneshavn lies on the island of Karmoy, which is also famous for its many surfing beaches.
