The lightly-trafficked coastal route through Nordland is an experience of rare and
staggering beauty. You may not have time for the full 650km but a sample (prefer-
ably from Sandnessjøen to Storvik) is all but mandatory if you're progressing
northwards. It's not one to be rushed. The frequent ferry hops offer compulsory,
built-in breaks and stunning seascapes, while both inland glaciers and accessible
offshore islands - such as Vega, famous for its eider ducks, or Lovund, home to
200,000 puffins - are seductive diversions.
