[2025 Nordland Attraction] Travel Guide for Nusfjord - Historical Fishing Village (Updated Jul)

Nusfjord Fishing Village is like a 19th-century painting sealed in amber. The ochre-red wooden houses are scattered along the granite coastline. The cast iron anchor chain and the wooden racks for drying cod have solidified the memory of the century-old fishing industry. It can be called an open-air museum. During the winter aurora season, the snow-covered pier turns into a fairy tale theater. Follow the fishermen on a retro wooden boat to catch king crabs. After returning, look up at the green sky dancing in the steaming heat of the sauna boat. In the summer midnight sun, you can hike to the ruins of the Eggum lighthouse and watch the 24-hour golden light dye the rusty iron sheet of the herring workshop into a warm copper color. The restaurant in the village, which was converted from a herring warehouse, serves freshly caught langoustine soup, and waffles with homemade lingonberry sauce are a Nordic comfort. In this hidden village, the sound of the tide caresses the wooden pier all day long, and sea sculptures fly across the glass-clear water. Without the interference of electronic screens, the primitive wildness and comfortable experience are balanced.
