Little Kvalfjord is a fantastic gem that will undoubtedly give you inner peace amidst magnificent nature, birdsong, and the sound of a babbling brook while the sea lies calm and still.

Here, we are welcomed by hosts Synnøve and Alf Aksel, who will show us around and share stories about growing up in such a place without electricity and running water, with a father mostly away fishing and a mother managing everything at home alone with no other connections to the outside world except by boat.

We will be served a delicious warm lunch/dinner in the boathouse down by the shore, made from local and fresh ingredients, such as fish, whale, lamb, or reindeer, along with drinks. Children will also have the opportunity to fish from the floating dock if desired – we provide the equipment!

Safety, service, and precision are always our priorities with our Nordkapp Gran Coupe 905, a 29-foot wheelhouse boat with a spacious cabin and a separate toilet room.
