About this place
Henningsvær sits at the end of a road on the south side of Austvågøy, with harbours, galleries and cafés between the islets. Steep mountains rise behind it and the sea surrounds it on three sides. The village is popular in summer, so it is calmer in the shoulder seasons.
Local tip
Park at the edge of the village and walk in; the streets are narrow.
