Røst kommune's air quality benefits from its extraordinary position on the remote Lofoten outer archipelago in the open Norwegian Sea — among Norway's most exposed island municipalities — with consistent and often extremely powerful Norwegian Sea westerly winds providing outstanding natural ventilation. Minimal vehicle traffic and the fishing industry contribute negligible local sources, while the extraordinary remote North Atlantic island exposure generally maintains among Norway's finest air quality throughout most of the year.
