Tips from locals
Go to Aker Brygge and take the small ferry out to Hovedøya. Great place for a beach day (but get there early in June-August)
A nice island located just outside the city center. You can easily take the boat from Aker brygge over to Hovedøya. Hovedøya is a nice place to stay on a warm summerday. You can go for a swim or just relax at the beach!
Take the ferry over to one of the islands (Hovedøya, Gressholmen, Langøyene) for bathing and tanning during the day or relax in the evening as you watch the sun set.
