This live camera looks out over Harstad, the largest town on Hinnøya in Troms county. The view is streamed directly from the source, so you can check conditions over the town and surrounding fjord landscape before you travel. The page also shows local time and the weather outlook for Harstad.
About Harstad and its setting
Harstad lies on the island of Hinnøya in the Troms region of northern Norway, close to the Tjeldsund strait. The town sits between the sea and steep mountain slopes, and its harbour has long connected it to fishing, shipping and the wider coast. Northern Norway is known for its open skies, long light cycles and dramatic coastline, and Harstad is a practical base for exploring that landscape.
What to watch and when
The camera is positioned at a higher point above the town, so the view is best suited to following weather moving over the water and the mountains. Depending on the weather, you may see cloud banks rolling over the fjord, changing light on the slopes, and the activity of the harbour area. The light is especially interesting around the low sun of early morning and late evening, and in the long summer twilight of the north.
Climate and getting around
Harstad has a maritime subarctic climate, with mild winters for its latitude, cool summers and frequent wind and rain year round. Summer is generally the most comfortable season for visits, while winter brings short days and possible snow. Nearby VizCams cameras include Harstad - Gangsås, a few kilometres away, and Fjelldal - Village et Tjeldsundet, further along the coast.
