Fiskebrygga (English: The Fish Wharf) is a former fish landing in the city of Kristiansand in Agder county, Norway. The buildings have been redeveloped as a restaurant, shopping area, and tourist destination.
The former fish landing extends along both sides of Gravane Canal, the canal that separates the town centre, Kvadraturen, from the island of Odderøya. It was extensively reconstructed in the 1990s, with wood-fronted buildings in an old-fashioned style similar to the warehouses, painted yellow ochre and red, as well as housing, shops, and a number of restaurants.
There are wooden piers on both sides of Gravane Canal, where there is a bustling boat traffic in summer, and bridges over the canal give the area an almost Venetian look. The area has since experienced a renaissance.
The Fish Market at Fiskebrygga is one of the city's tourist attractions, selling all kinds of Norwegian fish and shellfish, including some live.

Gaularfjellet - in Fosseheimen
A trip over Gaularfjellet between Dragsvik by Sognefjorden, close to the known touristplace Balestrand, and Moskog, close to Førde as well as Sande in Sunnfjord, takes you to Fosseheimen. The road goes by the protected Gaular Watercourse along with cascading strings and waterfalls, and along with beatiful waters as pearls on a string.
The drive is exciting and varied, along narrow fjords, on a road up steep mountainsides, over high mountains and beautiful valleys. The view is powerful.

Kristiansandsfjorden, or Byfjorden, is the fjord outside Kristiansand in Agder. It is about 5.5 nautical miles (10 km) from Vestre havn to the open sea in the Skagerrak south of Oksø and Grønningen lighthouse. Otra, Norway's eighth longest river flows into the Kristiansand Fjord.
The fjord is up to 260 meters deep and the deepest area in the middle of the lease has previously been used for ammunition dumping. On the fjord bottom, especially in the inner areas, there is a lot of pollution from previous activities along the beaches. Much of the fjord bottom has in recent years been covered with fillings of rock and sand.
The fjord has two inlets, Østergapet (gap in dialect) between Oksøy and Grønningen and Vestergapet between Flekkerøy and Møvik / Kroodden. It was previously said that Vestergapet lay between Indre and Ytre Flekkerøy and in the strait between the island and the mainland was the most important harbor along the Skagerrak coast from around 1550.
Topdalsfjorden is a side arm of the fjord that runs from the mouth of the Topdalselven to Gleodden / Marvika. From the river estuary at Kjevik and Hamresanden and further inland, the name Ålefjærfjorden is used. From Ålefjær to Gleodden it is 5 nautical miles.
In the area by Torsviga and Kongsgårdbukta on Lund between Marvika and Ringvoldåsen / Ringknuten in Topdalsfjorden, a new port facility for Kristiansand is currently being built (2006).
