Fishing holiday in Western Norway
Lauvøy is one of many small islands that make up the ‘main island’ of Askøy, a separate municipality west of Bergen.
The island is connected to the mainland via a bridge, the road has been built all the way to Ramsøy with the help of a breakwater that stretches over several small islands and cuts the fish-rich Hjeltefjord in to half its width.
This means that all fish coming in from the sea must go through this passage. For those who like fishing, fishing here will be an unforgettable experience.
As a fisherman, you can follow your passion in Lauvøy all year round; winter and summer, autumn and spring. No matter which direction the wind blows, you will almost always find a sheltered bay where you can fish for ling and tusk, saithe, pollack, haddock, whiting, mackerel and more.
If the weather is nice and allows it, you can quickly drive out into the open sea with our fast-moving boats. It takes about 30 minutes.
Due to the proximity to the open sea and the impressive length of the Hjeltefjord, which is well protected from the wind with many passages to the open sea, countless slopes with strongly flowing zones, rocky cliffs and flat zones, the biological diversity is enormous.
Lauvøy is a certified fishing company , which means that our guests can transport a maximum of the fish they catch out of the country (only important for tourist fishing in Norway).
Holiday with children
Some people cannot imagine a family holiday where you can fish and have both your spouse and children with you. But then it’s luck that you’ve found us, because here there are opportunities for the whole family!
Around our facility we have an artificial grass pitch that is always perfectly trimmed and dries quickly after the rain. We also have an entertaining playground for the little ones where they can let off steam. In addition, we have trampoline football, badminton, frisbee and much more.
With us, it is a short distance to the fishing adventure. It’s always entertaining to fish, especially when the mackerel season starts – then it’s very busy and the little ones are busy and having fun!
Fishing holiday in Western Norway
Our fishing boats are delivered with fuel and in clean and functional condition. Before you drive off, you will receive a theoretical briefing from us where we will go through the sea chart and explain what you should look out for. On request, we can also provide a practical briefing, where you will be shown how to best handle the boat. Fishing boxes or fishing barrels and a bucket are available for each fishing boat
Please note that the boats, as well as fishing boxes and buckets must be thoroughly cleaned on the last day of fishing. You will find the tools you need for this, such as cleaning brushes, sponges and high-pressure washers on the quayside. We ask you not to leave traces of blood or other dirt on boats, fish boxes and buckets. Please return the fishing boat with a full tank after the last day of fishing.
If the boats and accessories mentioned above are not in the clean condition in which they were received, we must charge a cleaning fee of NOK 500.
We’d like to introduce you to our newly built drying and storage rooms on the dock, which make fishing much more convenient. Forget about lugging heavy gear through the complex to your apartments!
Our rooms are located directly on the dock, so you can park your boat right in front and load and unload your gear (sinkers, jigging crates, etc.) quickly and easily.
Each room has:
• 150-liter freezer: On-site fish processing and storage – no more lugging through the complex!
•Sstorage space: For all your fishing gear.
• Coat hooks: For hanging wet clothes, swimsuits, and life jackets.
• Heat pump: The rooms can be used for drying clothes.
• Partition: Each room is separated from the others by a chain-link fence.
We also offer:
Stainless steel filleting tables with cutting boards, freshwater hookups, draining grates for the fish fillets, and non-slip mats.
We are confident that our system will make your fishing trips much more enjoyable and efficient.
What we value.
To ensure cleanliness and order at the workstations and avoid misunderstandings.
Please ensure that the tables and all equipment (knives, cutting boards, buckets, fillet mats, fillets, and faucets) are thoroughly cleaned after each filleting and gutting of fish. If you notice a dirty workstation, please let us know immediately, and we will take care of it.
The workstation must always be left clean.
Another important point: Please do not feed the seagulls in the harbor with fish scraps! All waste must be disposed of in the fjord, at least 300 meters from the harbor entrance.
