Fryd Askøy

Fryd Askøy feels like one of those places you stumble upon and immediately wonder why you didn’t visit sooner. Floating peacefully in the idyllic Strusshamn guest harbour, it offers a calm, scenic escape that’s only a short drive from the energy of Bergen, but it truly feels worlds away.

The first thing you notice is the view. Inside the warm, modern sauna, the panoramic windows turn the harbour into a living postcard. Boats glide by, the water shifts in soft colours, and the whole atmosphere invites you to slow down. Add the option to connect your own music via Bluetooth, and it becomes your own little floating universe.

Stepping outside for a sea dip is a breeze; the access to the water is easy and safe, making that refreshing cold plunge feel natural, almost irresistible. It’s the kind of contrast that clears your mind instantly.

What really makes Fryd Askøy special is how flexible and welcoming it feels. It works just as well for a quiet moment alone as it does for birthdays, gatherings with friends, team outings, or simply a break from everyday noise. The atmosphere encourages conversation, relaxation, and a sense of shared calm without ever feeling crowded.

Clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed, Fryd Askøy manages to be both social and serene. It’s a place to disconnect from stress, reconnect with people you care about, or just treat yourself to a warm pocket of peace on the water. A truly uplifting little getaway.
