Cruise to Selja Monastery

Come to see and experience some of the most ancient existing sites of church history in this country, associated with a sanctum, a bishopric seat and an abbey.

Guided tour to Selja Monastery

The journey starts in the village of Selje where the “Monastert boat” MV Selja takes you on a 15 minutes cruise out to the island of Selja Monastery.

When you embark the island of Selja, it is like travelling back in time. Our guides will tell the exiting story about the legend of St.Sunniva and the Selja Monastery. You can walk in the same halls as the benedict munks did for more than 700 years ago, and walk the shallow stairways to the top of the tower. Follow the footsteps of St.Sunniva to the holy Sunnivacave, and enjoy the magnificent view of the Selja Abbey. Maybe you want to taste the healing water from Sunnivas well?
