Where in Oslo are the boats?
Most are picked up at the quays around the inner Oslofjord — Aker Brygge, Frognerkilen and the Bygdøy side. From there it's just minutes out to Hovedøya and the nearest bathing islands.
Where should I go on a day trip from Oslo?
Popular spots are Langøyene and Gressholmen for swimming, Hovedøya for monastery ruins and granite, and a hop over to Nesodden or Drøbak for lunch. All under an hour away at an easy pace.
Do I need a boating licence to rent a boat in Oslo?
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 Oslo?
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 Oslo?
Insurance and the deposit are shown on each listing. Sailfloat is working to put built-in per-rental coverage in place at launch.
