ØYGARDEN - The Incredible Isles

Øygarden

A small leap from Bergen and you’re in the archipelago. In the ocean to the west of Bergen lie the beautiful coastal landscape of Øygarden.

Øygarden promises a wide-eyed, wild adventure, as you’re immersed into its stunning scenery. Take part in a rafting race or try fly fishing around the islands. Through the boulders and gorges, streams and straits flow, like whales gliding on the surface of the water. Climber’s fingertips cling to the cliffs. Down in the ocean’s depths a 30 kilo catch loiters, eyeing-up your bait. You’ll have to seriously understate the adventures you’ve had if you want anyone to believe what you’ve experienced in Øygarden.

TeamXtreme

If you’ve got a need for speed, then you should pay TeamXtreme a visit. They’ve got water-skis, wakeboards, tubes, banana tubes and our latest acquisition – the Flyfish. The Flyfish gets towed by speed boat and hovers up to 10 meters above the sea. If you like the thrill of the Flyfish, you’ll enjoy riding the sea rafts at 50 knots, breaking through the meter-high waves of the open sea. Or for something a little calmer, join the sea safari for an out-of-the-ordinary ocean adventure, TeamXtreme also offers jet skiing, paintball, clay pigeon shooting, diving, abseiling, archery, axe throwing, and many other exciting activities for family and business events.
