Sortland

Sortland combines the practical character of a regional centre with a coastal setting, reflecting its position on Langøya beside the Sortlandssundet strait in Vesterålen. Known as the Blue Town, it has promoted blue-painted building façades since 1998, giving its centre a distinctive identity in northern Norway. The Sortland Bridge crosses the strait to Hinnøya, connecting two major islands of the Vesterålen archipelago. Hurtigruten vessels also call here, underlining the town’s role on the northern coast.
