About Bronnoysund

Bronnoysund is a small seaport on the Helgeland coast of Nordland, strung along a narrow peninsula just south of the Arctic Circle. It lies roughly halfway along Norway, about 840 km from each end of the country, in the middle of an archipelago of thousands of islands.

A Viking chieftain once kept a trading post at the foot of Torghatten, the island mountain south-west of town with a natural tunnel about 35 m high through it; legend says the hole was made by an arrow. Offshore lies the Vega Archipelago, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where islanders still build small houses for nesting eider ducks and collect the down.

Coastal express ships call on both their northbound and southbound routes, and small expedition cruise ships also visit.

Climate
Cool and wet coastal climate, moderated by the sea. Based on long-term averages, the mean temperature is around 0 to 1 C from December to February and about 14 C in July and August. Rain and snow total roughly 1,400 to 1,500 mm a year in the area; autumn and early winter are the wettest months and late spring the driest. Bring warm, waterproof layers in any season. All figures are approximate.
