By: Amy Currie,  www.tourradar.com

Welcome to a dramatically beautiful destination you’ll never forget. North of the Arctic Circle, the Lofoten region consists of a series of rugged islands off the coast of northern Norway. The picturesque archipelago is made up of four main islands – Austvågøya, Vestvågøya, Moskenesøya and Flakstadøya – as well as countless smaller (but equally enchanting) isles.

The area is known for its spectacular scenery, pristine environment and excellent fishing. Lofoten is an ideal place to see the magnificent northern lights and experience the midnight sun. It also provides a fascinating insight into Norway’s past and the fishing trade that plays a vital role in the nation’s history. But, before you go, we’ve compiled a list of everything you need to know.
