In
the first couple of years it was just the men that competed here, but now
it is both men and women. It brings a great atmosphere - and Stavanger is popular with the players - made even more special by the visits of large cruise ships in the harbour most days. It also has one of the biggest prize-money purses. When: Monday 28 June - Sunday 4 July 2010 Where: Vaagen harbour in central Stavanger Website: (norsk) www.wtstavanger.com In the days before the beach volleyball tournament a ship arrives in town carrying sand, which is then placed half a metre deep around the harbour, where the courts (about 10 of them) will be. In 2006 there was a barge in the harbour with 2 courts and a beach-bar - a nice addition. It takes about three weeks to build the main stadium, which closes the road on the north side of the harbour. Distance from Stavanger: 0 km |

The
event is held around the main harbour, close to Gamle
Stavanger and many other great
places to visit in the area. Kids Verdict: This is fun to watch for a while - especially with the music and atmosphere of the main stadium. See also: hotels in Stavanger area restaurants in Stavanger area bars cafes and clubs in Stavanger area trips out in Stavanger area |
