Gausvika

Gausvik sits on Tjeldsundet in Norway’s Troms region, where the strait separates Hinnøya from Tjeldøya and connects the waters around Ofoten and Vågsfjorden. The settlement lies north of Harstad along the E10, in a coastal district defined by islands, narrow channels and rapidly changing northern light. Gausvik is also associated with Gausvik fort, a German-built coastal battery from the Second World War; its surviving installations recall the strategic role of this sea passage. Summer brings long daylight at this high latitude, while clear winter nights can bring aurora displays.
