Lofoten Islands are located far above the Arctic Circle in Norway. The landscape is diverse and due to the Gulf Stream these islands have a very mild climate. During Summer you can experience the midnight sun, whilst the northern lights will be blazing across the sky from September to mid April.
"July and August will be your best chance of good weather, long, endless days and the islands at their fullest. Go hike up a mountain at midnight and watch the sun hover over the sea, or sit by a campfire on the beach at 2am under a blue sky. The endless days of summer can also be a bit surreal and you will quickly lose track of time and days; time becomes of secondary importance."
Visit 68 North if you dream of visiting this amazing place yourself and capturing the atmosphere on photo.
