About Svolvær
Svolvaer is the main town of the Lofoten islands in northern Norway, set on Austvagoya beneath steep mountains. Most cruise ships berth at the quay in the town centre or at a west quay at Osan, while larger ships anchor and tender passengers ashore. The town is a transport hub and a common starting point for coach tours across Lofoten and Vesteralen. In town there is an ice gallery and bar. Nearby Kabelvag was the site of Vagar, the first known town in northern Norway, and the island fishing village of Henningsvaer lies a short drive south-west.
