Havila Voyages – Made in Norway (section)
Norwegian origin

Proudly “Made in Norway”

Havila Voyages is authorised to use the “Made in Norway” mark by Innovation Norway – Norway’s official agency for business and tourism.

Made in Norway mark The “Made in Norway” origin label.

The mark recognises our Norwegian ownership, origin, and commitment to responsible, sustainable operations. To qualify, companies must meet strict criteria for value creation in Norway, ethical business, and environmental care.

Our heritage

Havila Voyages is proudly Norwegian-owned, sailing the same coastal route that has connected communities for over 130 years – now with the world’s most environmentally friendly coastal ships.

Our way forward

Sustainability is built into everything – from seasonal, locally sourced menus to our LNG- and battery-powered ships. Sailing quietly and efficiently, we reduce emissions, cut waste, and create voyages that care for the coast as much as we enjoy it.

Our impact

From the fish on your plate to the chairs you sit in and the excursions you join, your voyage supports local jobs, traditions, and skills that keep Norway’s coastal heritage alive.
