Swimming places in Sirdal
There are several great bathing spots in Sirdal. Several of them are located along the road, so it is easy to stop to take a cooling bath on a hot day.
Nesetfossen is one of the most famous bathing spots in Sirdal. Over many years, the water has formed beautiful deep potholes surrounded by majestic waterfalls. Here you can swim, jump, dive and explore the area for several hours.
Another favorite is Øksendalsvatnet in Øksendal. A beautiful and lush part of Sirdal, with a great beach, with a toilet and a volleyball court that the well team has established.
There are also several beautiful beaches in Sirdal, most of which lie along the Sira river. Among other things, you will find swimming beaches at Tonstad (Sirdal cultural center and in Sirdalsvatnet), Lindeland camping, Tjørhom, at Ålsheia and Fidjeland.
If you are the adventurous type, you will also find countless nice bathing spots on the mountain. Take a break along Suleskarvegen (Fv 987/337), Hunnedalen (Fv 45), Gyadalen/towards Helleland (Fv 42) or the road to Kvinesdal/Evje (Fv 42).
A great swimming facility has been built at the cultural center and the football pitches in Tonstad. Here you can either enjoy lazy days on the beach, or experience water fun in the water park.
Local regulations must be taken into account at all bathing areas.
