Farsund's prosperous past as a shipping and privateering town shows in its orderly streets of white-painted wooden houses and grand merchants' homes overlooking a sheltered harbour. A loop around the centre, the harbour front and the lookout above town takes about an hour, with cafés and a small museum along the way.
