Where to stay, by price level
Reine / Sakrisøy$$$
The most scenic base, closest to Reinebringen and southern beaches, rorbu cabins on the water
Henningsvær$$-$$$
Active fishing village with cafes and a football pitch on a rock formation, good middle-ground location
Svolvær$$
Most practical, supermarkets, services, ferry terminal, but lacks the scenic drama of villages further west
