A different kind of summer welcome ☀️
This season, our new Open Village experiences invite you into the heart of remote Norwegian communities — places like Træna, Bessaker, and Sæbø.
Available exclusively on our Signature Voyages, these moments are shaped by the people who live there: homemade cake, local music, quiet conversations, and a genuine sense of place.
There’s no charge to guests — instead, we make a direct contribution to every village we visit.
“For us in Bessaker, the Open Village contribution is about more than income, it is the foundation for growth and optimism in our community. In a village of just 170 people, 12 businesses benefit directly, from activity providers to artists, bakers and local producers,” said Knut Johan Monkan, from Coastal Host Bessaker.
Will you join us for a slower kind of summer on the Norwegian coast?
