The sun is back

Day 24: Sandhornøya-Bodø (66 km)

Finally, after many days of grey weather and rain, the good weather is back. We left our camp at Sandhornøya right after nine o’clock this morning and headed towards Bodø. This was going to be a short day since we had gone longer than planned yesterday. 

After a bit more than thirty kilometres, we reached Saltstraumen – a narrow sound with very strong currents caused by the tides. This is a paradise for fishermen. We only enjoyed the view and continued without fishing. 

We reached Bodø at three and checked in at a nice small guesthouse close to the centre. After I got my clothes washed at a cleaning service, we enjoyed grilled salmon at a restaurant and took a little walk through the harbour. I also started working on my fourth video, but this won’t be finished by tomorrow morning as I hoped since I’ve got WiFi here. So I can use the time on the boat to Lofoten tomorrow. 

Up and down towards Bodø
