Arctic Hammerfest

 

This lodge is a completely new concept for fishing holidays. Here you stay in the middle of the town of Hammerfest with it’s typical arctic charm just two kilometers from the airport. Unlike most destinations, you live only 5 minutes from the center of Hammerfest in a state-of-the-art facility with its own harbor, and an outdoor area with a view directly over the sea. 

 

One of the unique features of this location are the boats. With 26 foot, extra wide and 200 HP and a cabin this is the ultimate fishingboat and biggest and best available in the whole of Norway. It allows you to go further and to unfished places. Take for example the top location on the north side of the island Soroya. A vast area of more than 600 km2 with depths of 20 to 30 metres where it is teaming with halibut. With these boats it takes you only 30 minutes to get to the edge of this superspot. Or the island of

 

Rolvsoya is within reach with these boats in 45 minutes. And when the weather is less favorable you just drive into the Soroyasundet where there are loads of spots, currents etc where you will also find great fishing.

 

This location sets the new and highest standard of fishing in Norway. It is not the cheapest but it offers the best fishing, boats and accommodation with the shortest transfer from the airport imaginable. Furthermore there is an indoor fileting room close to the boats. If required also fishing equipment can be rented. 

 

Restaurant Bølgen is located right next to the Lodge, where you can have a better dinner or order a buffet. The starting point for fishing could not be better, if the weather permits you have the opportunity to fish at the best fishing spots outside Sørøya, Rolvsøya or Sørøyasundet with its countless halibut, cod and coalfish spots.

 

PLEASE NOTE: Because this location is so incredibly new, pictures of fish that were caught here are not available yet. We have therefore added our own selection of photos caught in neighbouring locations!
