Kamøyvær
Kamøyvær is an idyllic fishing village on the road to the North Cape
Kamøyvær is the second closest in distance from Honningsvåg fishing village on Magerøya island.
Located at about 10 kilometers towards the North Cape, and with the population of no more than 100 people, this charming place offers breathtaking views on the Risfjorden and Kamøyvær inner harbour.
This fishing village is protected from the open sea by two islands: Lille Kamøya and Store Kamøya. A small bird mountain is located near Store Kamøya.
Local art gallery, hiking trails, and view points along the road, are the most popular reasons to visit Kamøyvær.
Kamøyvær is located about 12 kilometers (around 15 minutes by car) from Honningsvåg. We recommend traveling by car for flexibility
There is also a public bus connection, but please note that it operates as a “bus on demand.”
