Buøy Camping

Southern Norway


Surrounded on all sides by water, this attractive, well-run campground has plenty of activities for children, lots of shady pitches for tents and quaint Little Red Riding Hood–style wooden cabins that are just as cute inside as they are out. There's a restaurant here and bike rental is available for 150kr per day.

Campers aren't the only ones who like this place: the waters around the campsite are home to several beaver families whom you'll almost certainly get to meet if you go on a dusk walk along the river.
