Skrova Havn
Skrova Havn, a charming village area nestled within the Vågan Municipality of Nordland County, Norway, embraces a unique island life. This small archipelago thrives on fishing,
fish farming, and even whaling, boasting one of the largest whaling stations in
the country. The village itself resides
primarily on Heimskrova island, gracing its northern part. Regular ferry routes provide easy access
between Skrova Havn, the town of Svolvær, and the village of Skutvika.
For the adventurous
soul, Skrova Kayak AS offers unforgettable kayaking adventures
around the island. Those seeking a
deeper understanding of the area's history and local stories can embark on a
guided walk with Koselig Moments Walking Tours. A
visit to Skrova Lighthouse, situated in the southwestern part of the
island group, adds another layer to your exploration. While nightlife options are limited, HeimBrygga, a cozy 200-year-old wooden building,
provides a charming atmosphere to unwind. Alternatively, Styrhuset Pub is a popular local gathering spot. For most shopping needs, residents rely on
regular ferry trips to Svolvær. The
village center itself offers a fish processing plant with a shop nearby.
