Message from Vanita Safaniuk

Ballstad is Lofoten's largest operational fishing village, where you can experience the vibrant Cod (Skrei) fishery in all its glory. Nestled among small islands, the village offers a picturesque setting with the iconic Skottind mountain looming overhead. Visitors can stay in charming fisherman's cabins, explore the harbor activities like kayaking and fishing, or hike to the top of Skottind for breathtaking views. Whether you're into seafood, outdoor adventures, or simply soaking up the coastal charm, Ballstad has something for everyone.
