Making the most of Traena
Use these notes to shape a realistic day ashore, then confirm any time-sensitive information for the date of your call.
Arriving at the port
Træna is a tiny port village on Husøya Island in Træna Municipality, Nordland county in northern Norway, well above the Arctic Circle.
Træna is not a major commercial cruise terminal like larger cities — it’s essentially a coastal fishing port used by some expedition, regional, and Hurtigruten-style cruises.
Many cruise lines anchor offshore due to depth/space limits and tender passengers ashore.
Sightseeing
Træna is known for its natural Arctic beauty, rugged islands, and traditional fishing culture.
Once ashore on Husøya, the port area is very walkable — you can stroll the waterfront, visit local cafés, and see the small village.
Money
The Norwegian currency is the Norwegian crown (norske krone), abbreviated;kr. A 1/100th krone is called øre. 1.00 EUR = about 8 NOK
