Hotel Director of Havila Voyages, Camilla Løvlien and Coach of Norway’s team at Bocuse d 'Or, Gunnar Hvarnes are now launching a concept in which they have divided up the coast into four regions. Each stretch has its own character and offers its own unique flavours and dishes.

"Our aim is to display all the wonderful ingredients from our very long country, while also giving our guests a great range of options. We want our guests to be able to eat well and also try something different every day. So we plan to take you on a great culinary adventure."

Løvlien and Hvarnes say that with the extensive selection of good, pure ingredients throughout Norway, in addition to Havila Voyages being a Norwegian family-owned shipping company with coastal roots, it was only natural to offer a broad range of Norwegian foods.

Names derived from the coast and sea

Our new, environmentally-friendly ships offer a variety of dining experiences in addition to a Havila Voyages takeaway menu.

The main restaurant on board is Havrand Restaurant. 'Havly' is a name that represents a place of shelter and sustenance for people living along the coast, and our Havly Café is also a place that serves good, hearty fare based on traditional ingredients. Restaurant Hildring is our fine dining restaurant and is a culinary dreamland you will be able to experience on the most beautiful days.

Food from the sea and the land

At Havrand Restaurant, the menu reflects the coastline you sail along. The voyage is divided into four sections: the fjords, the polar region, the Arctic and the archipelago, which means that there is a different menu every three days.

"This allows you to explore the menu and try something new every day, with flavours based on the best ingredients from the land and the world’s best seafood from the clean, cold waters of the Norwegian Sea."

Your personal table buffet

Camilla Løvlien and Gunnar Hvarnes say that food as good as this should be savoured. Havila Voyages ships do not have buffets with crowds and queues that entail a risk of infection. Instead, there is personal service at each table where you can choose your own buffet. And for breakfast ...

"We have a large selection of cheeses, jams, cold cuts, vegetables and fruits, baked goods and hot dishes. You can order as many dishes as you like, as well as being able to have your own buffet at your table, which you can enjoy in peace and quiet while also being served hot and cold drinks."

Havila Voyages offers the same range of options for lunch and dinner. We recommend two or three small dishes for a satisfying lunch. For dinner, there is a choice of one, two or three courses. If that’s not enough to choose from, there is also "Hildring", our fine dining restaurant with its set five-course dinner with exclusive ingredients and Havila Gold which offers numerous extras.

"We have so many good ingredients and dishes to offer in Norway, and our cuisine will be a big part of a person's decision to travel with Havila Voyages. Now I’m looking forward to enjoying this epicurean coastal experience."

About Havila Voyages

Havila Voyages is a Norwegian shipping company that sails the classic coastal voyage between Bergen and Kirkenes with the Norwegian coast's most environmentally friendly ships.

The four new ships are loaded with one the world's largest battery pack ever installed on passenger ships and can sail for up to four hours without noise or emissions through vulnerable areas. The batteries are charged with clean hydropower at shore, and when the batteries are low we switch to natural gas which cuts CO2 by around 35 %.

The hull is specially designed for maximum energy efficiency, and excess heat from cooling water and sea used for heating on board. On the menu are locally made dishes from local producers, and all unnecessary plastic is avoided. We are already exceeding the authorities' requirements for cutting emission, and we have set sail with zero emissions as the future target.

Havila Voyages is part of the Havila Group that dates back to the 1950s. It all started when the founder, Per Sævik, bought his first fishing boat in his teens. From fishing and herring fishing, Havila is now a group operating in shipping technology, offshore, transport and tourism.
