Sarnes
Sarnes is a small coastal settlement located about 10 km south of Honningsvåg, along the road to the North Cape.
The village lies by the Sarnesfjord on the southern side of Magerøya island. Although small, the area has a long history of settlement, with archaeological findings showing that people have lived here since the end of the last Ice Age.
Sarnes had no road connection until 1999, when the E69 highway was built through the area. Today it is a quiet stop along the route between Honningsvåg and the North Cape plateau.
The area is known for its scenic coastal views and as a base for fishing and outdoor experiences. Modern seaside cabins and fishing facilities make Sarnes a convenient place to stay while exploring Magerøya and the North Cape region.
With its peaceful surroundings and proximity to Honningsvåg, Sarnes offers visitors a calm Arctic atmosphere just a short drive from the town centre and the road to North Cape.
Visitors can stay in cabins or camping facilities near the coastline.
Sarnes offers easy access to nature and the coastline. Visitors can enjoy sea fishing, short walks in the surrounding landscape and scenic views of the Barents Sea. Activities in the area also include king crab safaris and the opportunity to taste fresh king crab.
