Hamnøya[2] is a small fishing village in Moskenes Municipality in Nordland county, Norway. It is located on a small peninsula on the eastern side of the island of Moskenesøya, about northeast of the village of Reine, along the Vestfjorden. Hamnøya was previously connected to Reine by ferry, but this was replaced by bridges on the European route E10 highway as part of the Lofoten Mainland Connection.[3]
