At the end of the Lofoten road, there lies the remote village of Å situated among mountains and beside the roaring Atlantic Ocean. Capturing the essence of coastal life in Northern Norway, Å is an incredibly beautiful destination with a rich history. The Ellingsen family used to rule supreme over the fishing industry which still takes place here today. Moreover, Å's maelstrom provides an exciting boat ride into the open ocean and the Lofoten Stockfish Museum reveals the important role that stockfish played in economic life. With surfing, fishing, kayaking, and more available nearby, Å is the perfect village for an adventure. Shortest village name of the world.
