Værøyhamn

Værøyhamn is the main harbour on Værøy, one of the most remote islands in the Lofoten archipelago, sitting dramatically beneath steep bird cliffs that are home to thousands of puffins. The island has a real end-of-the-world feel, with a small community that's been fishing these waters for centuries. You anchor off here and take in the surroundings — rugged peaks, open sea, and some of the best seabird watching in Norway just a short walk away.
