Unique countryside or urban pleasures. Steaming hot concerts or blissful peace and quiet. Adrenaline kicking activities or relaxing meetings with a timeless culture. A night on the town or freshly caught cod over the campfire outside your tent. Whether you are here for two days or two weeks, in Bodø the adventures and experiences are waiting in line.

Bodø is the capital of the county of Nordland and is a city undergoing rapid growth. It is a driving force in the field of Norwegian aviation and one of the cornerstones of the armed forces. The city has a population of 47,000 people and is situated on a peninsula on the world’s most beautiful coastline, surrounded by unforgettable scenery.

Places you can’t miss are:

Kjerringøy

One of Norway’s best preserved trading posts offers a timeless feeling of belonging. Your soul will find room for reflection here, and your imagination can wander barefoot along the chalk-white beaches.

Saltstraumen

The City

Gourmet food, an ocean of activities, high-spirited culture and inspiring shopping. You will find all of this in Bodø, the city on the world’s most beautiful coast.

Værran

Out in the sea, amid the isles and skerries, there lies a magical island realm. Try a round trip on the fast passenger boat and see with your own eyes why this is ”the world’s most beautiful coastline.”

Misvær/Skjerstad

Exciting culture and wilderness adventures in an area incorporating unspoilt countryside and North Norway’s oldest buildings. Misvær and Skjærstad give you time for reflection and space for blissful happiness.
