Andfjorden, Fjord between Nordland and Troms, Norway

The fjord extends 90 kilometers between the islands of And and Senja, reaching depths of 509 meters in the Norwegian Sea.

The fjord's waterways functioned as essential maritime routes during the Viking Age, facilitating trade and transportation along Norway's northern coast.

Local fishing communities maintain traditional practices along the fjord's shores, preserving methods passed through generations of Norwegian maritime families.

Visitors can explore the fjord through guided boat tours departing from multiple ports, with services operating throughout the summer season.

The fjord contains one of only five bamboo coral forests in the world, located in its innermost section near deep underwater canyons.
