Hovsund

Hovsund is best known within Nordland for its coastal position on Gimsøya, an island in the Lofoten archipelago. The locality lies beside the Norwegian Sea, where open water meets a low, grass-covered shore before sharper Lofoten mountains rise on neighbouring islands. Hov Beach is close by, and the Lofoten Links golf course has made this corner of Gimsøya a recognised stop for players travelling through the archipelago. Summer’s midnight sun and the darker months’ northern lights reflect the pronounced seasonal rhythm of this far-northern coast.
