Hadsel spans parts of four large islands, with its main centres on Hadseløya. Stokmarknes provides hospital and other services, while Melbu retains the imprint of fish processing and industrial working life.
Livestock farms occupy the land between the towns. On Austvågøya and Hinnøya, this open coastal countryside gives way to much steeper mountains and fjords.
