The Ofot fjord plays host to a variety of fish such as saith, cod, catfish, halibut, red fish, char, salmon, cusk and spiny dogfish, offering ample fishing opportunities. The fjord is deep, 550 m, with all the small fjord arms, you can always find somewhere to fish from land at any time during the year, and you are nearly always guaranteed a catch. 

Schools of saith, mackerel and herring inhabit the Ofot fjord and surrounding them are the larger fish hunting for prey. The largest cod we have caught from a boat was 32 kg and the largest halibut was 25 kg. The cod-spawning season is from February till May.

The magnificent sea eagle is often spotted hunting for fish or grabbing the offal that we throw overboard after slaying the fish. This is an excellent photo opportunity.

Our fishing tours can be tailored to your request. Food and beverage is served onboard. Fishing equipment can be hired and FjordCruise Narvik can take groups of up to 90 people for a day out on the sea. The scenery around Narvik is breathtaking and the experience memorable.
Why not hire a guide that will teach you some of the tricks and when you have caught the ”Big One” you can decide whether you want it preserved and bring it with you or Fjordcruise Narvik can prepare a meal onboard.
