Apartment in Hennes, Hadsel municipality. Nearest in this guide: Svolvær

Hennesstrand Brygge is a small set of apartments right at the dock in Hennes, run as a registered fishing tourism business. Its own site describes three units named after local waters, Lonkanfjorden, Raftsundet and Trollfjorden, sleeping five or six each, with guests able to walk out of the door onto floating docks. From April to September it hires out 19 ft Kværnø boats moored alongside.

On Booking.com the apartments are listed as 70 to 80 m² with three or four bedrooms, twin beds in each room, a bathroom with both bath and shower, and a kitchen with oven, dishwasher and microwave. On site you will find a minimarket, a coffee shop, a picnic area with barbecues, bike hire and ski storage.

Hennes is on Hinnøya, east of Raftsundet, so this is outside the Lofoten islands; the operator presents it as a base for both Vesterålen and Lofoten. Svolvær, the nearest destination this guide covers, is about 43 km away in a straight line.

Why stay here

You can step out of the apartment onto the dock and take a hired boat out to fish in season. Møysalen National Park rises behind the property, according to the operator, and the nine Booking.com reviews so far average 9.3.
