Telegrafbukta outside of Tromsø is the famous beach on the southern part of the Tromsø Island. It´s an easy and short cycle trip.

Going through the city you´ll pass along the wharf close to the sea and through some residential areas. As you get closer to Sydspissen, you bike on a very pleasant gravel walking path. It is narrow and popular for pedestrians. Even though it´s cold in the water, the area is really nice for relaxing with a lawn and sandy beach. In summer time – if the sun is shining – this is a great place to enjoy the midnight sun.
