Rørvik Beach (Rorvika)

Tucked away on the southern coast of the Lofoten Islands, not far from the main E10 road is Rorvik beach. Despite being so close to the road this little beach is often overlooked as it isn’t one of the better known Lofoten beaches.

Whilst the surrounding scenery isn’t quite as immediate as the towering mountains on some of the archipelago’s other beaches it is still beautiful. The backdrop is tree covered slopes with a sprinkling of wildflowers, but beyond that the land rises up into the familiar rugged peaks.

The beach itself is everything you would expect from the Lofoten Islands; fine white sand and crystal clear turquoise waters.
