No Time to Die Filming Locations: All 10 and How to Visit

No Time to Die was filmed in Norway, Italy, Jamaica, the United Kingdom and the Faroe Islands, and eight of its ten main locations are places you can stand in yourself. The two you cannot are sets: Bond’s Jamaican beach house and the Matera hotel balcony were both built for the shoot and taken down afterwards.

Daniel Craig’s last film as 007 leans harder on real places than most Bond films do, which is why so many of its locations have turned into small tourism industries since 2021. Below is each one, what was shot there, and the practical question every film-location list skips: whether you can get to it, and how. Access details were checked in September 2026, because a few of these have changed.

Every No Time to Die filming location at a glance

The ten locations are listed below in the order they appear in the film, with the scene each one carries and whether you can reach it.

1. Langvann, Norway

Langvann is the frozen lake of the opening flashback, where a young Madeleine Swann is chased across the ice. It sits near the village of Hakadal, north of Oslo, and the crew shot there weeks ahead of the main production schedule because they needed the ice before it melted.

Norway put real money behind getting the film. The country’s production incentive scheme was a large part of why the unit came at all, and the same scheme has since brought other productions to the same landscapes.

Getting there: Hakadal is on the Gjøvik railway line from Oslo Central, roughly 40 minutes out, and the lake is a short drive west of the village. Go in late winter for the frozen version and be sensible about lake ice, which is not a film set.

2. Spiaggia Cent’Ammari, Italy

Spiaggia Cent’Ammari is the rocky bay where we first meet the adult Madeleine Swann, swimming. It is a small beach at Maratea in Basilicata, about 10 km (6 mi) south of Sapri on the Tyrrhenian coast, with the peak above Maratea visible in the background of Bond’s shot.

This is the one location on the list that is genuinely hard to reach. The beach is accessible from the sea or through the grounds of the Hotel Santavenere, and not on foot from a public path. If you want the shot without booking the hotel, hire a boat in Maratea harbour, which is the usual way visitors see it.

Getting there: Maratea is on the Tyrrhenian coastal railway, and Maratea to Matera is roughly a 3-hour drive across the region.

3. Matera, Italy

Matera carries the car chase, the cemetery scene and the film’s opening sequence in Italy. Bond drives the Aston Martin DB5 through the narrow streets of a town cut into the hillside in the Basilicata region of the south.

The stone town is one of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in the world, and it has not always been an attractive place to live. The Sassi districts were cleared in the 1950s because of poverty and disease, and people only moved back gradually. Matera was a European Capital of Culture in 2019, and it now has cave hotels, serious restaurants and enough tourism infrastructure to absorb the Bond effect.

The cemetery scene was shot at Murgia Timone, in the Parco della Murgia Materana across the Gravina gorge, which is also where you find the chiese rupestri, the rock churches carved into the ravine. More than 150 of them are scattered through the park, and the view back across the gorge to the Sassi is the one the film uses.

One thing you cannot book: the hotel balcony Madeleine steps out onto does not exist. The room and its front wall were built on scaffolding at Piazzetta Pascoli, below the Belvedere di Piazza Giovanni Pascoli, so the set sat at the level of the square. The hotel in the film is fictional. You can stand at the Belvedere and get the same view, which is what the set was built to borrow.

Getting there: trains run to Matera from Bari on the Ferrovie Appulo Lucane line. If you would rather compare the cave hotels in the Sassi before you go, Matera and the rest of the Italian locations are on booking.com, and four of the ten locations on this page are within a few hours of each other in the south.

4. Gravina in Puglia, Italy

Gravina in Puglia is where Bond jumps from the gorge onto an aqueduct to escape, immediately after the Matera chase. The bridge is the Ponte Acquedotto Madonna della Stella, and you can walk across it.

The aqueduct is 90 m (295 ft) long and 37 m (121 ft) high, a two-tier limestone structure dating to the 18th century, built so that people could cross the Gravina ravine to reach the rock sanctuary of the Madonna della Stella on the far side. Plenty of film-location write-ups quote 90 metres as the height, which makes the jump sound far bigger than it is. That figure is the bridge’s length.

The town has more than the bridge. Gravina Sotterranea takes you into the cave network under the streets, and the ruins of the medieval castle sit outside the centre.

Getting there: arrive at Bari and take the train, the same line that serves Matera.

5. Sapri, Italy

Sapri station is where Madeleine and Bond separate, in a scene shot on a working platform of a working railway. The town is on the Campania coast at the top of the Gulf of Policastro, roughly 200 km (124 mi) from Matera.

Sapri itself is a modest seaside town rather than a set-piece, and the station is the reason to come. Several guides credit Sapri with the natural sea arch known as the Arcomagno. That arch is real and it is not in Sapri: it is at San Nicola Arcella in Calabria, about 25 km (16 mi) further down the same gulf, and it is worth the detour on its own terms.

Getting there: Sapri is a stop on the main Tyrrhenian line between Naples and Reggio Calabria, so you can reach it directly by train from either end. Regional and long-distance trains across Italy can be compared through Omio’s Europe-wide search.

6. Port Antonio, Jamaica

Port Antonio is where Bond has retired at the start of the film, and where a good deal of Jamaica’s screen time was shot. The beach house set stood at San San, in a cove near Frenchman’s Cove on the Portland coast, and it was built from scratch for the production and dismantled when filming wrapped in 2019.

That set was so remote that divers were hired to bring construction materials in by sea. Nothing of it remains, so the thing to visit is the coastline it was built on: Frenchman’s Cove and San San Beach are both accessible, and both look exactly as they do in the film minus the house.

Jamaica is Bond’s home ground in more than one sense. Ian Fleming wrote the novels at his villa on the Goldeneye estate at Oracabessa Bay, and that estate still operates as a hotel with Fleming Villa bookable as accommodation. The Caribbean island also gave Dr No its Honey Ryder beach and supplied the fictional San Monique of Live and Let Die.

One thing that surprises people: the Cuban street scenes were not filmed in Cuba. Those sequences were split between Port Antonio and the stages at Pinewood, so the Havana bar you remember is partly Jamaica and partly Buckinghamshire.

7. London, England

London is where Bond returns when he is pulled out of retirement, and every exterior used in the United Kingdom capital is a public street you can walk down for nothing.

The Ministry of Defence Main Building in Whitehall stands in for MI6, alongside the real SIS building at Vauxhall Cross on the south bank of the Thames. The Mall, the ceremonial avenue running up to Buckingham Palace, appears as well. Most of the interiors and much of the Cuba material were shot at Pinewood Studios outside the city, including work on the 007 Stage.

Hammersmith Bridge has changed since the film. It has been shut to motor traffic since April 2019 and is now open only to pedestrians, cyclists and river traffic, and in June 2026 the local authority concluded that no funding route exists for a full restoration. You can still walk across it and photograph it. You cannot drive over it the way the film does.

8. Atlantic Ocean Road, Norway

The Atlantic Ocean Road is the causeway that carries the film’s second car chase, and it is an ordinary public road anyone can drive. The 8.3 km (5.2 mi) route links the island of Averøy to the mainland at the Romsdal peninsula, hopping across a chain of small islands on a series of curved bridges.

The Storseisundet bridge is the one that photographs like a ramp into the sea, and it is the shot the film uses. There are laybys and fishing platforms along the route, so you can stop rather than crawl.

Getting there: the road is on Norway’s west coast, reached from Molde or Kristiansund, and it is a driving location in the literal sense. Neither this nor the Scottish locations work well without a car, and DiscoverCars compares hire cars across Norwegian and UK suppliers in a single search.

9. The Cairngorms and Loch Laggan, Scotland

The Cairngorms and Loch Laggan carry the crash and the helicopter chase, the parts of the chase sequence that were not shot in Norway. Both sit inside or beside Cairngorms National Park, the largest national park in the United Kingdom.

Scotland has form in this series. Bond’s childhood home is Scottish, and Skyfall took the character back there in 2012, two films before this one. The Skyfall lodge itself was a set built in Glen Etive rather than anywhere in the Cairngorms, so the two films’ Scottish locations are not the same places.

The park rewards a visit beyond the film. There are snow-covered peaks into spring, castles, and Speyside on the doorstep for whisky distilleries.

Getting there: Aviemore is the main gateway and has a station on the Highland Main Line from Edinburgh and Glasgow. Loch Laggan is west of the park and needs a car.

10. Trøllanes and Kalsoy, Faroe Islands

Kalsoy is the island that closes the film, and it is the wildest place on this list. The village of Trøllanes, with a population in the teens, sits at the northern end under steep valley walls, and the coastline above it stands in for Safin’s island.

The lair is not there. It was added in post-production, and no structure was built on the island, so what you go for is the landscape and the walk. Since the film, locals have put up a James Bond memorial stone near the Kallur lighthouse, unveiled in March 2022 and cut from Faroese basalt, carrying M’s closing line about the proper function of man being to live, not to exist. It has become the thing most visitors come to photograph.

Getting there: take the ferry from Klaksvík to Syðradalur, then drive north through the single-lane tunnels to Trøllanes. The gravestone is roughly a 45-minute walk from the village. The ferry is small, the tunnels are one-way with passing places, and the weather decides more than your schedule does, so allow a whole day and check sailings before you commit to a date.

The two things you cannot see

Two of the film’s most-photographed locations do not exist as buildings, and both get promised by film-location lists that have not checked.

1. Bond’s Jamaican beach house. Built at San San near Port Antonio in 2019 and dismantled when the shoot ended. The cove is there, the house is not, and no hotel occupies the site.
2. The Matera hotel balcony. Built on scaffolding at Piazzetta Pascoli so it sat level with the square. The hotel is fictional. Booking a room with that exact view is not possible, and the Belvedere above the set gives you the same outlook for free.

Tours to the No Time to Die locations

Guided tours run at four of the ten locations, and they solve the two practical problems the film-location list creates: getting to places that are awkward without a car, and knowing which corner of a town the camera was actually pointing at.

1. Matera has walking tours that take in the chase route, Piazzetta Pascoli and the Murgia Timone viewpoint across the gorge.
2. Kalsoy has a Bond-specific tour run with the farmer who hosted the crew, which is the simplest way to see the gravestone without organising the ferry and the tunnels yourself.
3. Port Antonio boat trips reach Frenchman’s Cove and San San by water, which is how the set was supplied in the first place.
4. The Cairngorms run guided walks and 4×4 trips into the parts of the park that the roads do not reach.

Prices and availability move constantly, so the widget below shows what is currently bookable rather than figures that would be stale in a month.

No Time to Die locations FAQ

Where in Italy was No Time to Die filmed? In four places: Spiaggia Cent’Ammari at Maratea, where Madeleine swims; Matera, for the Aston Martin chase and the cemetery; Gravina in Puglia, for the aqueduct jump; and Sapri, for the railway station break-up. All four are in the south, within a few hours of each other.

Where was the beginning of No Time to Die filmed? The opening flashback was shot at Langvann, a lake near Hakadal, north of Oslo in Norway. The crew filmed it early, ahead of the main schedule, to catch the ice before it thawed.

Can you stay in Bond’s house in Jamaica? No. It was a set built at San San near Port Antonio and taken down after filming in 2019. You can stay on the Goldeneye estate at Oracabessa Bay instead, where Ian Fleming wrote the novels and where Fleming Villa is bookable.

Where is Safin’s island in No Time to Die? The island scenes were shot on Kalsoy in the Faroe Islands, around the village of Trøllanes. The lair itself was created in post-production and never existed on the island.

How many countries was No Time to Die filmed in? Five: Norway, Italy, Jamaica, the United Kingdom and the Faroe Islands. Lists that say six are usually counting Scotland and England separately, or the Faroe Islands and Denmark as one.

WonderfulWanderings Pro Tips

The 4 tips below come from checking each of these locations for access in September 2026, and they are the four things most likely to change a plan built from a film-location list.

1. Arrange a boat in Maratea harbour for Spiaggia Cent’Ammari. No public path reaches the beach. The two ways in are from the sea or through the grounds of the Hotel Santavenere, so unless you are staying there, the boat is the plan rather than the fallback.
2. Give Kalsoy a whole day and check the sailings before you fix the date. The ferry from Klaksvík to Syðradalur is small, the road north to Trøllanes runs through single-lane tunnels with passing places, and the memorial stone is a 45-minute walk beyond the village. Safin’s lair was added in post-production, so the walk and the cliffs are what you are going for.
3. Split the four Italian locations into two halves. Maratea and Sapri sit about 10 km (6.2 mi) apart on the Tyrrhenian coastal line on the west side, while Matera and Gravina in Puglia are both reached from Bari on the east. The drive between the two halves is roughly 3 hours, so treat it as one crossing rather than four separate trips.
4. Walk Hammersmith Bridge, do not plan to drive it. It has been shut to motor traffic since April 2019 and now carries pedestrians, cyclists and river traffic only, and in June 2026 the local authority concluded that no funding route exists for a full restoration. The film’s version of that crossing is no longer available to you.
