Vestvågøy has a broad agricultural belt across the island, contrasting with steep coastal mountains. Leknes is the trading centre, while Gravdal provides hospital services.
Ballstad and Stamsund face the fishing grounds with fleets, landing facilities and processing. Inland farms add another major dimension to these fishing communities.
