Tanafjord, Fjord in Finnmark county, Norway
The Tanafjord stretches 65 kilometers from Smalfjord village to the Barents Sea, with a width ranging between 8 to 12 kilometers.
Norse and Sami communities established settlements along the Tanafjord shores during medieval times, creating a network of fishing and trading posts.
The Norwegian, Northern Sami, and Kven languages maintain distinct names for the fjord, reflecting the multilingual heritage of the region.
Norwegian County Roads 98 and 890 provide access to settlements around the fjord, with services concentrated in Vestertana and Austertana villages.
Three side fjords branch from the main waterway: Hopsfjorden, Langfjorden, and Gulgofjorden, each leading to separate coastal communities.
