fishing trip from svolvær
Tour description
On our fishing trips you can experience catching all kinds of fish. You can take the fish you catch with you if you wish and prepare your own dinner.
The trip lasts about 3 hours in a traditional northern Norwegian fishing boat on the Lofoten sea. You will hear stories/legends about fishing in Lofoten and, most importantly, you will get to try fishing.
If you have never fished before and are not sure if you can handle it, don't worry, our experienced captain will teach you all the basics so that you can have a great experience fishing in a safe way.
Lofoten is known for its large amount of fish, so here you have the opportunity to catch big fish and get a memory for life! In the summer you often catch pollock, haddock, mackerel and coastal cod, but it is also common to catch tusk, sole, flounder and halibut.
Take a look at the other common fish species you might be able to catch here.
MS Luna is a well-maintained traditional fishing boat like the ones that were used in Lofoten in the old days.
We take a maximum of 12 people on board our fishing boat because our concept is to give all our guests a good experience and enough space to enjoy this unique and exclusive experience, so there will be plenty of space and enough fishing rods for everyone.
Of course, the trip has much more to offer than just fishing. You will be surrounded by the unique Lofoten's nature with thousand meters high mountains plunging directly into the sea, idyllic bays with crystal clear water and chalk white sandy beaches, just to name a few.
If we are lucky, we may even see sea eagles, whales, porpoises, sharks and seals.
We take safety seriously and you will be equipped with warm floatation suit and life jacket. On board Luna, coffee will be included in the ticket. We do not serve food on board, but you can of course bring your own food. It is possible to stay inside the cabin if you get cold and need to warm up a bit. There are also a toilets on board.
The tour departs from the main square in Svolvær.
Daily departures are at 09:30 and 13:00.
You will receive a quick safety briefing when you get on board and all the necessary equipment and then we will set off. Our experienced skipper will take you to good fishing spots in the Vestfjorden.
The itinerary can change daily based on weather conditions and location of fish.
The meeting place is at our ticket office at least 20 minutes before departure.

Don't forget to bring your camera or phone! Other things you don't want to take with you on the trip can be handed in to our office.
We reserve also also the right to cancel in the event of adverse weather conditions and/or other unforeseen events.
In either case, you will receive a full refund or be given the option to move your excursion to another convenient date and time at no additional cost.

Der Guide war sehr unterhaltsam und informativ und hat uns nah an die Seeadler gebracht. Im Winter ist es zwar etwas frisch um die Nase aber man bekommt gute Schutzkleidung.
