Husøya

1

Husøya is a small island and the administrative centre of Træna Municipality in Nordland county, Norway. It is located just east of the island of Sanna in the Trænfjorden, about 20 km northwest of the island of Lovund (in neighboring Lurøy Municipality) and about 12 km south of Selvær. The Træna Lighthouse lies south of the island. The island is only accessible by boat, and there is regular ferry service from Husøya to the island of Selvær and to Stokkvågen on the mainland. Most of the flat island is made up of the village of Husøya, which is the administrative centre of the municipality. It is the location of Træna Church. The 0.42 km2 village has a population (2023) of 382 and a population density of 910 PD/km2. The annual Træna Music Festival is held here and on the neighboring island of Sanna.
