Experience fjords, mountains, and archipelagos from the comfort of a private luxury yacht. Summer in the Nordics hardly gets better.

Across Norway, Sweden, and Finland, some of the most rewarding ways to explore both nature and culture are from the water. We arrange private yachts that offer seamless access to experiences, privileged entry to remote parts of fjords and archipelagos, and a unique way to connect with the landscapes, far from the crowds.

Below is a selection of destinations across the region, whether your clients wish to explore one country or combine several.

Norway: Fjords & Mountains

Women in summer outfits smile on a yacht in a narrow canyon with turquoise water and rocky cliffs under a clear sky.

With its extensive coastline and diverse scenery, Norway is ideal for private yachting. The range of experiences is exceptional. In the far north, in Lofoten, guests can complement their stay at a luxury lodge or hotel with private day cruises. Around Bergen, you find Norway’s most iconic fjords, while Stavanger combines natural landmarks with a vibrant culinary scene.

While the West Coast is known for its dramatic, towering fjords, the Oslofjord offers a softer and more refined coastal landscape, perfectly suited for relaxed yachting, island hopping, and long summer days at sea.

Highlights:

Yachting from Bergen: Hardangerfjord or Sognefjord
Stavanger region: Pulpit Rock, Lysefjord, and a dynamic dining scene
Oslofjord: Scenic archipelago, with bespoke onboard dining curated by one of Oslo’s leading restaurants
Lofoten: Private day tours through spectacular landscapes

Sweden: Archipelago Living
