Naustet

By the edge of the sea in Vågsvåg stands Naustet – The Boathouse: a simple, soulful space that carries the quiet spirit of the Norwegian coast. Once built to shelter boats and gear from the wind and salt, the boathouse has always been a place where life met the sea — where work, rest, and community flowed together.

Today, Naustet has found new life as a place for togetherness and slow experiences by the water. Here, you can gather with friends after a sauna, share a meal by the fire, or simply sit by the window and watch the tide shift. The space invites connection — to nature, to each other, and to the rhythm of the coast.

Use Naustet your way:
– Add it to your sauna session for “The Extra Hour” — a warm and social extension of your time by the sea.
– Celebrate a birthday, gather your team, or share a quiet morning coffee with someone you love.
– Book it for a lunch by the sea, an evening barbecue, or a yoga session with ocean air and open space.

Every gathering at Naustet becomes part of a living tradition — a way of using and caring for the coastal heritage that shaped life here for generations. The building is simple, sturdy, and full of stories; its new purpose is to bring people together again, in balance with the elements.
