Trondheim is blessed with access not only to beautiful views of the Fjord, but to many Fjord experiences.

1. Going on a Boat Excursion with Trondheim by Boat

Amanda’s 3 Favourite Spots on the Fjord:
Skansen Sailing Harbour – The harbour is a cosy and nostalgic spot to catch the sunset. The whole place has this wonderful, beautiful glow.
Brikka – This area of Nidelva is popular for a reason, it’s classic and beautiful! The colourful houses are always are always a bright sight to see!
Submarine Bunkers Dora – sailing underneath here is a rare experience that is only possible at low tide. Visiting here can be creepy and dark, but very fascinating and exciting.
2. Doing a cold plunge and having a swim in the Fjord

The best way to experience the Fjord is from within. To feel the full force of Trondheim Fjord is one of the best parts of the summer. Whether you are getting off work and need a good cool-down and fun, or you are visiting Norway and checking swimming in a Fjord off your bucket list, here are some of the best places to jump in!

3. Going for a kayak or paddleboard adventure

Kayaking and Stand-Up Paddleboarding are active methods for exploring the Fjord in a sustainable and affordable way. The sea kayaks, which are wide two-person kayaks, are designed for stability in higher risk expeditions and allow for rigorous Fjord exploring. While the paddleboard excursions consist of a higher dunk potential and cover fewer sights with a little more foolish child-like fun.

4. Having a spa day (or night) at Havet

Havet is made up of several different components of activity and event facilities to make up one hub for entertainment. The activity arena has views of the Fjord, situated in the port area of Nyhavna.
Nothing gets more relaxing than being on the water, nothing except for a day at the spa on the water. Ark is Trondheim’s floating village of saunas, fresh baths, and of course restaurant and bar. Swimming in the fresh seawater, after a detoxifying and cleansing sauna, is a sensation like no other. This part of Havet offers varying packages and facility memberships to meet the sauna needs of locals and tourists alike.
Although Ark is reason enough to visit, Havet also has a stage and dining. Heim stage and bar is a fun and cool atmosphere for live entertainment and social gathering.
As of now, Havet is currently closed but will be opening within the next coming months of 2022.
Upcoming Events at Havet:
August 26, 2022 – Afro-Latin Dance Night with DJ Husbeat and AfroLatin Dance Trondheim

5. Attending an Oil Ceremony at Sjøbadet Trondheim

Sjøbadet is an all-season member-based sea bath at St. Olavs Pier in Trondheim. The facilities include a multi-tiered dive tower into the Fjord. The bathhouse has a special view of the sunset on the Fjord overlooking Munkholmen.
Sjøbadet arranges public bathing and sauna facilities. The sea baths are open to the public, during the summer every last weekend of the month and also on particularly good-weathered days. For Sjøbadet, a good weather day refers to all sunny days or days with a temperature above 15 degrees and no rain.
Aufguss ceremony at Sjøbadet consists of pouring water and essential oils mixture of the hot stones of the sauna. The steam rising from the stones creates an aromatic atmosphere and various positive effects on the body depending on the oil. The whole oil ceremony lasts about 5 to 15 minutes and can be very revitalizing.
6. Dining with an intimate view of the Fjord

There's nothing quite like enjoying a delicious meal by the sea. The salty breeze on your skin adding to the flavour palette of the experience. And if you're inside, just the view alone can add a nice calming but thrilling element to a meal.
