A summer oasis and swimming paradise in the Oslofjord, known as the city’s closest summer getaway. It’s just an eight-minute boat ride from Aker Brygge! Here, you can dive into the clear fjord water from two beautiful sandy beaches on the west side or wander along the rocky shores to find your own quiet spot. In the middle of the island, there’s a large green lawn perfect for ball games or lazy sunny days, all while listening to the waves gently crashing ashore. The island is also rich in history. You can visit the 12th-century monastery ruins before or after your next swim.
