An Authentic Experience

Step aboard the historic M/K Vaarsol for a truly authentic adventure. Built in 1943 and once used for active fishing, this proud vessel was fully restored in the 1990s. Recently, it was brought back home to Ballstad by Geir Ivar and Jakob – two locals with deep roots in the Lofoten fishing tradition.

Fishing has long been the lifeblood of Lofoten, playing a vital role in shaping the region's culture and economy. Now you can be part of that legacy.

Join us for a real Lofoten fishing experience aboard a boat rich with history. Your captain is a seasoned fisherman who has spent his entire life at sea – ready to share his knowledge, stories, and passion with you.
