Å is the southernmost town on the island of Moskenesøya in Norway.

The name origins from vikings who thought they had been everywhere on the Lofoten islands, when suddenly they encountered yet another island. "Å! Another island!", they said.

[edit] Get in

Å can be reached from the Moskenes ferry terminal on foot, by car or by bus, and is around a 20-40 minute walk or 5 minute drive.

[edit] Get around

There are bikes for hire at the Youth Hostel and some hiking paths are dotted around the surrounding area.

A ferry to the Moskenesoya maelstrom (a swirling circular current off the coast of the island), and the fishing museum are arguably the two main attractions of the village. The village sits between a picturesque lake and the North sea, with many of the wooden buildings being built over water on stilts.
