Whether you want to chase the big catch, hike under the midnight sun, or sit quietly beneath the northern lights, Sandland is a place that leaves a lasting impression.
Your stay can be filled with memorable experiences. Many visitors come for the sea fishing, and with access to some of the richest fishing grounds in Northern Norway, the chances are high of landing both halibut and skrei. Boat trips with local skippers provide safety and good catches, but just as much it’s about being out on the Lopphavet and feeling the forces of nature. On land you’ll find peaceful contrasts – hikes leading you up to Svarteberget with sweeping views of sea and mountains, or a quiet row across Sandlandsvannet where the trout rise in the evening sun. After an active day, you can unwind in the sauna or gather with friends around the barbecue hut down by the pier.
Sandland Brygge offers a variety of accommodation options, all with the sea as their closest neighbour. Choose from modern lodge-style apartments with panoramic views, or the freestanding Blue House with four bedrooms and space for the whole family. No matter what you choose, you’ll have a cosy base with fully equipped kitchens, Wi-Fi, laundry facilities and spacious living – perfect after a day spent outdoors.
The hosts, Stina and Steinar Halvorsen, are the heart of Sandland Brygge. They take pride in looking after their guests and are always happy to share stories, local knowledge and tips for both fishing and hiking. Here, you are not just a visitor, but part of the community at the pier.
The easiest way to reach Sandland is by express boat from Øksfjord – a journey that itself offers a meeting with fjords and coastal scenery few ever get to experience. When you arrive, the sea, the mountains and the hosts are ready to welcome you to a stay filled with nature experiences and tranquillity.
