Bendiksbukta, Beach at Odderøya, Kristiansand, Norway
Bendiksbukta features a gradual sloping beach along the eastern shore of Odderøya island, complemented by a natural grass amphitheater facing the water.
The quarantine wall near Bendiksbukta was constructed in the early 1800s, and the bay received its name from quarantine inspector Gustav Adolph Benneche.
The location serves as a venue for the Måkeskrik Festival since 2012 and previously hosted performances during the notable Quart Festival of Kristiansand.
Visitors can access the beach through several bridges connecting Odderøya to central Kristiansand, with facilities available for full-day beach activities.
The site integrates a shallow-water beach with a natural grass amphitheater, creating an outdoor concert venue that accommodates musical performances during summer months.
