About Bodø
Bodø is a coastal city in northern Norway just above the Arctic Circle, the gateway to Saltstraumen's tidal whirlpools and to the Lofoten islands.
Bodø is a modern seaside city in Nordland, northern Norway, at about 67 degrees north, a little above the Arctic Circle. It was largely rebuilt after bombing in 1940, and its centre is a compact grid of low buildings, a harbour, and a cathedral with a separate bell tower. The Norwegian Aviation Museum, shaped like a propeller, and the Kjerringøy trading post, a preserved nineteenth-century merchant station, are the main sights.
Top-ranked sights in Bodø: Saltstraumen.
