What is Blindleia?
Blindleia is a long, sheltered boat channel through the archipelago between Lillesand and Kristiansand — one of the country's most famous and idyllic stretches of water, safe even for small boats and full of calm coves to stop in.
Is Lillesand good for a relaxed day trip?
Yes — Blindleia and the islands of Justøya and Skauerøya offer calm, short trips through beautiful scenery. It's perfect at snekke pace, with swimming and smooth granite rocks along the way.
Do I need a boating licence to rent a boat in Lillesand?
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 Lillesand?
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 Lillesand?
Insurance and the deposit are shown on each listing. Sailfloat is working to put built-in per-rental coverage in place at launch.
