In summer, absolute heaven! Wild flowers make the most of their short season, all trying to out-compete each other. Sitting by the sea at midnight, watching white tailed sea eagles and reading your book by the light of the sun you may even experience an algal bloom turning the warm sea to an unbelievably brilliant turquoise.
In winter, a wonderful place to see the Northern Lights with (relatively!) mild temperatures due to the Gulf Stream. From February to May you may find the smell of drying cod, ‘Stockfish’ somewhat overpowering.
The down side: you’ll always suffer from the urge to go back there!

From Oslo or Trondheim, take the train or drive to Bodø, and catch the ferry from Bodø to Moskenes.

The Lofoten Islands is the perfect place for a family holiday.
Norway is really child friendly, safe and in Lofoten there is loads of fun things to do for everyone.
You can go whale watching in sea kayaks, go rock climbing, and above all fishing!
There's nothing catching and cooking your supper yourself and the children will definitely love it too.
The nature in Lofoten is so beautiful, and it gets quite hot in the summers too - with the midnight sun shining 24hours a day.
