The Skipnes Fishing Village is located in beautiful natural surroundings that feature the best that Vesterålen has to offer. Join us and experience a close relationship to mountains and fjords, birds and fish, the midnight sun and much more, all in historic and peaceful surroundings.

The venerable old fishing village of Skipnes offers rorbu holidays and memorable experiences. The facility is located on the non-trafficked seaward side of the Vesterålen islands, well sheltered on a natural harbour. Come to Skipnes and enjoy rorbu accommodations. Peace, calmness and renewed inspiration for the soul.
