Kabelvåg
We like to call it an urban village. The village has just under 2,000 inhabitants, but still has a lively café scene and the essential shops. Together with Lofoten Folkehøgskole, Nordland Art and Film School adds a vibrant touch to life in the small town.
Svolvær is the larger town, with a shopping centre, cultural centre, sports shops and a vibrant restaurant scene, and is located 4–5 kilometres from Kabelvåg.
