3. Skrei season
This time of year, millions of Atlantic cod, called skrei, migrate from the Barents Sea to Northern Norway to spawn.
The small fishing villages of Lofoten and Vesterålen teem with life from now until April. The cod are dried on racks to make tørrfisk, stockfish.
Join a scenic fishing tour, and stay in a cosy rorbu, a fisherman's cabin. And remember that skrei season also means gourmet seafood meals all over the country!
Learn more about skrei and plan your skrei adventure.
