Norway Bleik Beach

Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

Bleik is a fishing village in the municipality of Andøy in Nordland county, Norway. Bleik has one of the longest beaches in Norway, and it is said that the beach is the reason for the village's name. The beach is white, and Bleik is a word for white/pale in the Norwegian language.
The triangle-shaped island off the coast is called Bleiksøya. This island is the biggest resort of puffins in all of Norway. The lake Bleiksvatnet lies just south of the village.

Photography Tips

If you visit during the summer a trip out to Bleiksøya is a must for some puffins and eagles photos.
