Hov Beach & Sauna
Lofoten is often called the “Arctic Caribbean” due to its white sandy beaches like Hov, creating a stunning backdrop of natural beauty.
Hov Beach, located on Gimsøya Island, offers expansive views of the ocean, breathtaking sunsets, and the opportunity to experience the midnight sun in summer or the northern lights in winter.
Just beside the beach, the Hov Gård sauna provides a relaxing experience with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.
It’s traditional to enjoy the sauna and then take a cold plunge in the sea, completing the Arctic relaxation experience.
