    At 2.5 kilometers, the Bleikstranda is Norway's longest beach.

      One thing in advance: you can not wait for classic sunsets north of the Arctic Circle in midsummer. But with the midnight sun, you will experience a natural spectacle of truly epic breadth on the Vesterålen archipelago. On the north-west coast of the island of Andøya, around the small village of Bleik, a bay with dazzling white sandy beaches joins the next. If the weather is mild, one would expect to be on the beach of Bleik more in the Caribbean than north of Lofoten and 300 kilometers above the Arctic Circle. If you are looking for the absolute loneliness while enjoying the midnight sun, you will leave the mostly deserted beaches, circling one of the lakes behind Bleik or climbing the cliffs with magnificent views of the North Atlantic Ocean.
