About Leknes
Leknes is the main town of Vestvagoy, in the middle of the Lofoten islands in northern Norway, and the area's largest cruise port. Smaller ships tie up at the deep-water quay, while larger ships anchor in the open bay and tender passengers to a floating pier. The port lies in an industrial harbour about 3.5 km from central Leknes. Nearby are the Lofotr Viking Museum, with a reconstructed Viking longhouse, the church at Gravdal by the bay, and beaches such as Haukland between the mountains to the west.
