Fishing holiday in Tregde close to Kristiansand
Tregde Ferie is beautifully located on the Southern Norwegian coast, about a 45-minute drive from Kristiansand. Cabins and apartments close to the water, easy access to the archipelago, and nature right on your doorstep.
Experience Tregde and the idyllic South of Norway
The journey begins in Hirtshals with Fjord Line to Kristiansand. Choose between the fast Fjord FSTR catamaran, which operates during the spring and summer season, and our comfortable cruise ferries, which sail all year round. The crossing is easy and comfortable, and from Kristiansand it takes around 45 minutes by car to Tregde Ferie.
Here, you’ll stay in cabins or apartments close to the water, many with a terrace or balcony and views of the skerries. The resort has a cosy marina, a reception with local tips and easy access to activities both on land and on the water.
You can hire kayaks and SUP boards, join a RIB tour through the skerries, go fishing or explore coastal trails and quiet roads by e-bike. The nature around Tregde is perfect for leisurely walks, relaxing by small coves and short trips to nearby coastal communities.
Your holiday is completely flexible: you set the pace, and everything is within easy reach. Tregde is an ideal base for your stay – whether you want to relax, enjoy outdoor activities or combine the two.
Tregde is known as a true fishing paradise on Norway’s southern coast. From the marina, it’s just a short trip to a variety of fishing spots: rocky shores and headlands for cod, saithe and pollock, sandy seabeds for flatfish, and mackerel in season – often spotted by seabirds gathering above the shoals.
You can hire a boat directly at Tregde and plan your trips according to the weather, currents and your preferences – from short outings sheltered by the skerries to longer trips through calm channels.
On land, everything is set up with anglers in mind: a dedicated fish-cleaning house for preparing your catch, large freezers for storage, and jetties and ramps providing easy access to the water.
If you’d like to learn new techniques or discover new fishing spots, you can book guided fishing trips with local skippers who know the area well.
Not everyone in your group has to fish all day. Combine a morning of fishing with a relaxing kayaking trip, a SUP outing close to shore or a peaceful coastal walk. At Tregde, fishing and relaxation go hand in hand.

With Tregde as your base, there are plenty of great experiences close by. Mandal charms with white-painted wooden houses, small cafés and a cosy atmosphere. Head up to Uranienborg for beautiful views of the town and coast. For a day at the beach, Sjøsanden is a local classic within walking distance of the town centre. Along the Mandalselva river, nature takes on a different character, with green trails, bridges and peaceful spots by the water – and in season, the area is also known for salmon fishing in designated zones.
If you’d like to discover the history of the coast, Ryvingen Lighthouse is a scenic destination with wide-open horizons, while Lindesnes Lighthouse marks Norway’s southernmost point and offers exhibitions, local history and dramatic coastal scenery. On Skjernøy, you can experience a more authentic side of Southern Norway, with small harbours, narrow roads and everyday life by the sea creating a sense of peace and tranquillity. Routes can be made shorter or longer depending on the weather and your energy levels, making it easy to tailor each day without long drives.
Before heading home, you can round off your trip in Kristiansand. In Posebyen, discover the city’s historic charm with white-painted wooden houses and quiet streets, while Kilden Performing Arts Centre adds a modern touch to the harbour area with its waterfront promenade and views.
In Baneheia, the green recreational area close to the city centre, you’ll find small trails and lovely viewpoints overlooking the city. On the island of Odderøya, discover a mix of coastal nature, small galleries and traces of its history as a coastal fortress.
When it’s time to head back, drive to the terminal and sail to Hirtshals with Fjord Line. On board, you can relax, do some last-minute tax-free shopping and enjoy the final hours of your journey. A flexible holiday where you set the pace and length – and head home with plenty of great memories.
