Only videoThe Port of Nordfjordeid is a picturesque harbor located in the municipality of Stad, in Vestland County, western Norway. This live webcam captures the tranquil daily life and marine activity in this small yet significant fjord-side town, nestled at the end of the Eidsfjorden, a branch of the larger Nordfjorden—one of the longest and deepest fjords in the country.
The port serves as a central hub for both local industry and tourism, with facilities that accommodate small cargo vessels, fishing boats, and increasingly, cruise ships. Nordfjordeid has become a regular stop for cruise lines exploring the dramatic fjord landscapes of western Norway. When a ship is in port, the town comes to life with visitors exploring its local shops, cafes, and attractions.
One of the standout features near the port is the Myklebust Ship replica, located at the Sagastad Viking Center, just a short walk away. The center showcases the story of the largest Viking ship ever found in Norway, unearthed nearby and reconstructed as a full-scale exhibit. It’s a key cultural attraction that connects the town’s modern identity with its rich Norse heritage.
This webcam offers a real-time view of the waterfront, where you can see the harbor infrastructure, the nearby marina, and the scenic backdrop of snow-capped mountains, dense forests, and reflective waters. During winter, you might catch a serene snow-covered landscape, while in summer the area transforms into a vibrant green with long daylight hours.
The Port of Nordfjordeid also plays a role in regional transportation and aquaculture, with local ferries and service vessels frequently visible in the stream. The surrounding fjord is known for salmon farming, a major part of Norway’s export economy.
