Blomstrandhamna is a bay in Haakon VII LandatSpitsbergen, Svalbard. It is located at the northern side of Kongsfjorden, north of Blomstrandhalvøya. The bay splits into the two branches Nordvågen and Sørvågen.[1][2] Blomstrandhamna is connected with Dyrevika east of Blomstrandhalvøya. The connecting strait was earlier covered by the glacier Blomstrandbreen, and emerged after recent retreat of the glacier. A skerry in Blomstrandhamna and surrounding waters was included in the Blomstrandhamna Bird Sanctuary in 1973, covering an area of 0.58 square kilometers.
