Top-Rated Lofoten Shore Excursions

Cruise ships call at Leknes in the middle of the chain or at Svolvær, the main town, where they tie up close to the harbor. Jagged peaks rise straight from the sea, and port days mean kayaking among the islands, RIB trips into the narrow Trollfjord, sea eagle spotting, or drives to the red fishing cabins of Reine, Hamnøy and Henningsvær.
