In the Hadsel county of northern Norway is the small town of Stokmarknes. Located on the island of Hadseløya, Stokmarknes is home to one of Norway's biggest coastal transport firms and possesses some truly brilliant coastal views of its own. Hire a car at the Stokmarknes-Skagen Airport and, if you fancy something a bit different then it's a great idea to take a trip on the coastal steamer Hurtigruta, which is renowned as the World's Most Beautiful Voyage and an unforgettable experience.
Hurtigruten Museum is a great place to visit in the area of Stokmarknes because it details many aspects of maritime history in the Hadsel County. You can even climb onboard the old 1956 Finnmarken ship and walk around, or take a guided tour if you want. One of the most fascinating attractions in the area is the Hadsel Cultural Heritage Park. Here you will see some sites dating back to the Iron Age and there are other ancient artifacts to see here. If you want to find your own way around at your own pace then it's best to hire a car from Stokmarknes-Skagen Airport.
