SIGNATURE EXPERIENCES
AN AUTHENTIC CULINARY ADVENTURE CRUISE WITH OYTER DUNDEE
Duration: 4 hours
Step aboard M/Y Lagertha (our brand new Skilsø 39 Panorama, model 2024) for a culinary cruise led by the legend himself, Alf Roald Sætre, better known as “Oyster Dundee.” With a warm, dynamic personality and a knack for storytelling, Alf invites you into the heart of Norwegian culture through food, history, and laughter. His background as a sailor, diver, aqua engineer, and oyster farmer has shaped not only his life, but also his deep connection to these waters and their abundance.
As you depart from the bustling Fish Market, a landmark steeped in over a thousand years of history, you’ll begin to explore one of the world’s richest “pantries.” Alf and his crew share insights into Bergen’s seafaring traditions, its thriving marine life, and the stories of its exceptional seafood – ingredients that now grace Michelin-starred tables across Europe.
After a scenic journey, you’ll drop anchor in a secluded bay. Here, Alf presents a feast of local flavors: freshly caught crab, lobster, oysters, sea urchins, scallops, and more. Each dish celebrates the purity of Norwegian waters and the art of coastal foraging, creating a connection between nature and plate that’s impossible to replicate elsewhere.
A FEAST BORN OF NATURE
With each bite, Alf shares stories of life on the sea, ancient rituals, humorous tales, and personal memories that have shaped his craft. His energy is infectious; his knowledge, unparalleled.
By the time we return to Bergen, you won’t just have tasted the fjord,
you will have felt it, understood it, and carried home a true connection to Norway’s coast.
For many guests, this becomes the highlight of their entire Norway journey.
