Ájluokta - Drag

Drag lies on the eastern shore of Tysfjorden in Nordland, and its fjord-side position has long linked this small settlement in Hamarøy to surrounding coastal communities. The deep, branching waters of Tysfjorden and the rugged Nordland terrain set the scale here, far from Norway’s larger urban centres. Drag is a significant place for Lule Sámi culture: the Árran Lule Sami Centre documents Sámi language, traditions and contemporary life through exhibitions, archives and cultural work. The wider Hamarøy area is also associated with author and Nobel laureate Knut Hamsun. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Nordland.
