Observations - other than Excursions
The port stop at Svolvær is 55mins northbound - but its late at night - so in winter the shops were closed, no one was around except for fellow passengers, and there isn't really time to do much else than a quick walk around.
Southbound, the stop is two hours, early in the evening. We went for a walk along the harbour and over the bridge to a little island. As it was dark there wasn't a lot to see - but the bars and restaurants all looked lovely and cozy.
Eats
We didn't stop to eat - but there were outlets open.
Walk
There are excellent footpaths around the city.
Svolvær - in one line
Svolvær - this looked like a lovely port town that I wouldn't mind coming back to in the summer for a long weekend.
