Sandefjord is on the south coast of Norway, lying in the Vestfold region. The port is oftentimes seen as the gateway to Sweden, with many ferry routes heading to Stromstad on the Swedish west coast, typically lasting around 2 hours 30 minutes.
A captivating landscape and a diverse spread of architecture have prompted Sandefjord to be regarded as one of Scandinavia’s most charming coastal towns. Quaint, wooden cottages line the streets against modern apartment blocks and shopping complexes – the entire town is a contrast in its aesthetics. Head there in the midst of summer and you’ll find myriad of tourists soaking up the sun on the golden sands that dominate the coastline. For a more serene and peaceful experience, secluded bathing areas are ideal for losing yourself in nature.
Much like the majority of Norway, the history of the Vikings is evident across Sandefjord; the monuments on display around the town symbolise its heritage, and the museum showcases the fascinating history of Norway’s south coast. After the Viking history, maritime and whaling are the secondary themes associated with the region; Europe’s only whaling museum is found in the town, shaping Sandefjord’s reputation as one of the most illustrious towns in the whaling industry.
The town centre can be covered almost entirely by foot, whereas it may be necessary to use public transport to reach the outer areas - the bus system is fairly reliable and operates throughout the town. Alternatively you can hire a bike, or for the tired and weary, taxis are also readily available for affordable prices.
