I will spend one day in Harstad before taking Hurtigruten from Harstad to Sortland where my sister and her family lives. Here is the photos for your inspiration.

Visiting the north during February you will have a good chance to experience the northern lights, Aurora Borealis. February is still one of the dark months with very limited daylight. It is most likely to be a cold weekend with sub zero temperatures, bring warm clothes and enjoy life where you wouldn’t think too many people lives. Small city life and arctic experience coming up!
