This walkable Arctic town on a peninsula between two fjords in Nordland county, Bodø sits just north of the Arctic Circle and serves as the county's administrative centre. It was one of three European Capitals of Culture in 2024, alongside Bad Ischl and Tartu, and is home to FK Bodø/Glimt, one of Norway's most successful football clubs. The centre has a solid café and restaurant scene within easy reach of the waterfront.
