Hamnøya

Hamnøy has served as a fishing settlement in the Lofoten archipelago since the 19th century. Set on small islets off Moskenesøya beside Reinefjorden, it is linked to the surrounding islands by the E10 road and bridges, with sharply rising peaks close to the shore. Red rorbuer—traditional fishermen’s cabins—remain central to its identity and recall the seasonal cod fishery that shaped communities across Lofoten. Hamnøy lies near Reine, within the municipality of Moskenes, on Norway’s far-north coast. Its compact harbour setting and fishing heritage make it a useful introduction to this remote island chain.
