We see the inner harbour of the fishing village of Svolvær. The bay on the left is called Pollen. Lofoten was and still is dependent on the large amount of cod in this area. The boat houses are called "rorbuer", and can house seasonal fishermen and their boats when they come in winter from elsewhere in Norway to participate in the fisheries. A good view of current Svolvær, but from the opposite angle, can be found here:

Trollfjord, the fjord of fjords. Almost 3 kilometer long, but only 100 meter wide at the entrance. Originally called Svartfjorden, Black Fjord, in Germany known as Teufelskanal, the Devils Channel.
