Sola beach, Stavanger

This long, crescent-shaped bay in Norway's Stavanger district was named one of the best beaches in the world by the Sunday Times. Sola beach (also known as Solastranden) is a wonderful family vacation destination with fine golden sandy shores that span for 2.5 kilometers and gently drop off into shallow waters.

Wind- and water sports are popular in Sola Beach. In the southern end of the beach, there are traces of war structures. Even on a busy schedule, there is plenty of room to spread out. Volleyball, sailing, and kite-surfing are among the activities available at Sola Beach for persons of different ages.

If you are planning on staying for a few days, the beachfront Sola Strand Hotel, which has a full-service spa and a pool, as well as a new water sports center that opened in summer 2020, where you can take surfing and kite-surfing lessons and rent equipment for other water sports like Stand-Up Paddle, is a great choice.
