What's worth a visit by boat from Arendal?
Merdø with its old harbour village and the Merdøgaard museum, the islands of Tromøy and Hisøy just outside, and the Store Torungen lighthouse furthest out to sea. Pollen in the heart of town is the starting point.
Is the water around Arendal sheltered?
Inside the islands, between Tromøy and the mainland, it's well sheltered and lovely for calm trips. If you want to reach the Torungene lighthouses, pick a calm day — the sea is more open out there.
Do I need a boating licence to rent a boat in Arendal?
It depends on the boat. Boats over 8 metres or with engines over 25 hp require a boating licence if you were born on or after 1 January 1980. Many smaller boats can be rented without one. Each listing clearly states whether a licence is required.
How much does it cost to rent a boat in Arendal?
The price is set by each owner and varies with boat type, size and season. You see the total price including the service fee before you book – no hidden costs.
Is the boat insured when I rent in Arendal?
Insurance and the deposit are shown on each listing. Sailfloat is working to put built-in per-rental coverage in place at launch.
