Iddefjorden, Border fjord between Strömstad, Sweden and Halden, Norway.

The Iddefjord extends from Singlefjord to Berby valley, featuring steep natural formations and narrow waterways along both Norwegian and Swedish coasts.

During conflicts between Norway and Sweden, military fortifications were constructed along the fjord's steep sides, with remnants still visible today.

The fjord waters support local fishing communities on both sides of the border, maintaining traditional maritime practices through generations.

Visitors can navigate the fjord by boat, with the national boundary running through its center, Sweden on the right side and Norway on the left.

The outer section, known as Ringdalsfjord, transforms into Iddefjord at a distinct bend, creating two different waterway characteristics.
