It is located at the mouth of the Øksfjorden on the mainland, about {{convert|20|km}} northwest of Øksfjordbotn, a village at the other end of the Øksfjorden. The {{convert|0.33|km2|acre|adj=on}} village has a population (2017) of 504 which gives the village a population density of {{convert|1527|PD/km2}}.[2]

The village of Øksfjord was historically an important regional fishing village that included a fish processing factory and fish oil factory. The factories have been closed since the 1980s, but since then some fish farms have been in use. Øksfjord Church is located in this village and it is the main church for the municipality.

Øksfjord is visited by the Hurtigruten boat daily, stopping here between stops at Skjervøy and Hammerfest. Since most of Loppa municipality is inaccessible by car, Øksfjord is a major transportation hub with regular car ferry connections to the Nuvsvåg, Bergsfjord, and Sør-Tverrfjord areas. There is also a regular ferry connection from Øksfjord to the village of Hasvik on the neighboring island of Sørøya in Hasvik municipality.

History

On 12 April 1941, the Royal Norwegian Navy — exiled to the United Kingdom — moored the destroyer {{HNoMS|Mansfield|G76|2}} at the pier at one o'clock in the night, with two objectives: To show the people of occupied Norway that the Navy was operating on the coast of Norway; and to blow up a fish oil factory. The warship departed after two hours, while inhabitants stood on the pier singing the national anthem.[3]

Notable person

  • Hans E. Kinck (1865–1926), novelist, dramatist and essayist, was born and raised in Øksfjord.

Commerce

The village has one café and one pub, as of 2015.[4]
