More than 10 years ago we were the first fishing travel agency to include Havoysund in our portfolio! We have fished here many years, many times and we know the region, the spots and the conditions like the back of our hand. We offer our guests a super interesting package at this location, at a very interesting price!

The region is known for the large quantity of fish and in particular halibut. There are many platforms here which, in combination with the large tidal differences, provide ideal conditions for halibut. Every year, several halibut are caught here above 2 metres. But coalfish, wolffish and cod are also very well present here. Certainly also because the island is surrounded by platforms that are ideal for halibut but further offshore there are perfect drop offs where the cod and coalfish like to stay in large shoals. For lovers of large schools of plaice it is also well worthwhile to visit Trollvika bay with its sandy bottom and actively chase these magnificent fish.

The various islands in the region such as Masoy, Hjelmsoya and Rolvsoya are teeming with platforms where large halibut are regularly caught. But the bays of these islands also offer good opportunities for targeted fishing for halibut. In addition to the large amount of plateaus, there are also drop offs here where you can target large cod and coalfish. There are also wolffish, haddock and redfish. In recent years, this location has developed into a top spot where halibut is caught in a targeted, frequent and regular manner and it is therefore recommended to make reservations early. Preferably a year in advance.

On the northern part of the island of Rolvsoya, on the small island of Fruholmen, you will find the northernmost lighthouse in Europe. For those who have fished in this location know that you will never forget this place and its overwhelming nature. It is also very well possible to descend to the south and fish around Skipsholmen and Austergrunnen. But also north of Havoysund, the Akkarfjord and the Kjerkenesgrunnen are waiting for you. All in all this is a fantastic fishing area where it is extremely likely that you are going to beat your personal records.

At the harbour there is a separate sheltered filleting area with running water and you can also store your fish clothes in a separate heated drying room so they are warm and dry the next day for the new fishing adventure. For all houses bed linen and a set of towels, water, electricity and final cleaning are included.

At this location we offer five spacious 6.5 meter long Quicksilver Pilothouse fishing boats with 100 HP engines. The boats are equipped with Lowrance or Simrad GPS / fishfinder and they have a high level of safety. Furthermore, the boats are equipped with the necessary life jackets, a first aid kit and emergency signals. The petrol tank is 130 litres and there is a compass and fire extinguisher on board. Very nice is of course the fact that this boat has a cabin so you can sit / stand in a sheltered position when the weather is less favourable.

The boats offer a high level of sailing comfort and the engines are powerful yet economical. For all our guests a day (max 8 hours) of guidance by the local guide is included in the booking! If the group consists of 4 persons (ex guide) it is necessary to reserve an extra boat as there are max 4 persons allowed on the boat. The costs for this will be 175 euro for one day ex fuel.

As of 2024, a larger and more comfortable boat is also available. This is a 24-foot aluminum cabin boat with 175 HP engine and Lowrance HDS 12 GPS / fishinfinder. This boat can be exchanged for a regular Quicksilver Pilothouse for an additional cost of € 795,- for a week.

Very handy! You can rent a bucket with lures here so you don't have to drag it all along yourself. Any material that you lose has to be paid on the spot. You can rent a bucket with a wide selection of shads and pilks for NOK 500 per week.

To get to the location the best alternative is to rent a large rental car (Volkswagen Passat Station) where you can fit in with 4 people and your equipment. The cost of the rental car is about 500 to 600 euros for the whole period.

A deposit of 9000 NOK or 1000 euros per boat is required on the spot. You will of course get this back after the end of your fishing week if the boat is returned in good working order. This deposit and any additional costs you need to pay cash on the spot.

The changeover day at this location is flexible so you can stay 8, 10 or more days. However, the booking periods must be in line with other bookings.

No crowds of other anglers but beautiful apartments with views of the fjord, good boats and the very best fishing! And that for amounts that can be called very favourable for this type of top location.

We work with SAS and Norwegian to reach this destination where we can arrange 2 x 23 kilos of luggage per person. Together with the 8 kilos of hand luggage this means 54 kilos of luggage pp. At the SAS, the rod tube is just part of the regular baggage and therefore costs nothing extra. The costs of these flights are around 500 euro pp.

To refuel by boat you can go to the marina of Havoysund where a fuel station for boats is available and where you can refuel 24 hours a day with credit card.
