Båtsfjord is Norway’s largest fishing harbour, and the Barents Sea begins just outside the breakwater. There is cod, halibut, redfish, haddock and a good deal else.

We have six 21-foot Smartliner boats for hire, and a freezer room for the catch. The nearest grounds are Skarbergrunnen at the head of the fjord on the east side, the banks off Makkaur — Storgrunnsbakken and Korsnesbakken — and Kongsfjorden to the west. The stretch from Makkaur to Sandfjorden is the best for halibut, at 10 to 25 metres.

Rods and flotation suits can be hired as well.

The weather turns quickly out here. Keep an eye on the forecast and head in as soon as it freshens — the swell builds fast.

What's included

  • Boat with engine
  • Freezer room for the catch
