What we like about Sula Rorbuer og Havhotell

  • Small offshore island with the open Atlantic right off the dock and short runs to deep water and known fishing grounds
  • Full-service resort combining sea hotel, rorbuer, restaurant and spa, suited to groups and families
  • Well-equipped aluminium boats with sonar, GPS and AIS, plus local guides who share fishing-ground and weather tips

Worth knowing

  • !Long transfer: roughly 2.5 hours from Trondheim to the Dyrøy ferry terminal, then a 40–90 minute ferry to Sula
  • !Few services on the island outside the resort itself; plan groceries and supplies in advance

Tips from experienced anglers

  1. 1Check the Dyrøy ferry schedule carefully before travel. Up to 7–8 departures a day, but the last ferry decides your arrival day.
  2. 2The grounds are strong pollack waters, so pack jigs and light pirks alongside heavier halibut and cod gear.
  3. 3The resort has cleaning and filleting rooms plus freezer storage. Remember the 2026 export quota of 15 kg fish per person (age 12+).
