Skutvika (or Skutvik) is a small village in the municipality of Hamarøy in the county of Nordland, Norway.

Hamarøy is located 100 km north of Bodø. The ferry connection from the mainland to Svolvær, the main center of Lofoten, goes from Skutvik. This means that it is a natural pitstop for tourists. Even though Skutvik in itself is a small and charming place, it is a beautiful place with the typical scenery of the northern part of Norway. Closely connected is the tiny village of Ness, where there is great possibilities for adventurers to have a look at one of the most powerful seacurrents in Northern-Europe.
