The Lofoten Fishing

Svolvær

Lofoten Fishing – A Legendary Cod Fishing Adventure

The Lofoten fishing adventure takes place every year from February to April and is one of the biggest events in Lofoten. Thousands of visitors come to experience this spectacular tradition, which has been a cornerstone of life in Lofoten for millennia.

Every winter, the Norwegian Arctic cod, known as Skrei, migrates in vast numbers from the Barents Sea to Lofoten with one purpose: to spawn. This incredible natural phenomenon has sustained local communities for over five thousand years. It was Skrei that our ancestors, the fierce Vikings, used to make stockfish—a tradition that continues to this day.

Today, the Lofoten fishery is one of the largest and most famous cod fisheries in the world. This means that your chances of making a great catch are excellent. The real question isn’t if you will catch a fish, but rather who will reel in the biggest cod—because that’s how we measure luck out at sea!

Our experienced crew will guide and assist you with everything you need, from fishing techniques and gear to safety procedures. All equipment is included in the package, so you can focus on enjoying the adventure.

If you’d like to bring your catch home, you’re more than welcome to. We’ll help you fillet the fish right on the boat, making it easier for you to prepare a delicious meal that will bring back memories of your Lofoten experience.

Join our fishing trip and catch your own cod while soaking in the breathtaking scenery of the Lofoten archipelago. Along the way, you’ll witness dramatic peaks, scattered islets, and the wild beauty of Norway’s coastline—an adventure you’ll never forget!
