Tips from experienced anglers

  1. 1Book apartment and boat well ahead -- the camp runs Thursday-to-Thursday weeks and the May to August high season fills early.
  2. 2Ask for the Pro Guide trip if you want to try deepwater fishing for halibut or large saithe around Frohavet.
  3. 3Remember that Frøya sits north of 62°N, so the export ceiling is 15 kg of fish or fish products per person aged 12+, twice per calendar year, from a registered tourist fishing camp in 2026.
