The small island of Landegode lies just outside Bodø,Nordland county, Norway.
It is a scenic jewel, whether you are bathing under the midnight sun in the summer or watching the dramatic dance of the northern lights above the lighthouse rock in the winter.
In this island realm we find the world's largest and most dense population of sea eagles, and this majestic bird is a magnificent sight as it takes off from its nest and plunges into the fjord in its quest for fish. Landego Lighthouse was built in 1901 in order to secure the seaward approach from Lofoten to Bodø. Today, it is automated and in full operation. It is possible to spend the night in the lighthousekeeper's and the assistant's houses. It takes a good hour to reach Landego lighthouse by boat over the choppy sea.
On a clear day you can see all the way to the Lofoten islands.
