Geocache Description:

Probably the nicest sandy beach above the arctic circle!

The cache is a tupperware-like container hidden between two rocks. Easy accessible by bike or car.

A perfect spot to enjoy the midnight sun! From below the cache, walk about 450m north and you will find one of the most beautiful beaches I've seen in the Arctic. Just behind the beach, there's a rock which is perfect to sit on and watch the midnight sun. You can see the Lofoten if the weather is clear.

July 2019: I've just returned to this place, 15 years after hiding the cache (I'm living in Switzerland). What an emotional moment! There's now more infrastructure nearby and it seems the spot has become very popular. Still absolutely amazing, this place!
