The lively fishing pier, called "Fiskebrygga", is an experience in itself.
Idyllic area with a fish market, restaurants (inside and outside), hustle and bustle with many boats and people.
Live fish and shellfish in water tanks.

Otra river

Highlight • River

Norway's 8th longest river, the Otra empties into the sea at Kristiansand. There's some great running to be had on its banks in the Kristiansand region. The Otra Elvepart, to the northwest of the city, is a fine example.
