Syltefjord, Arctic fjord in Båtsfjord Municipality, Norway.
Syltefjorden stretches 16 kilometers from the Syltefjordelva river mouth to the Barents Sea, with a width reaching 5 kilometers.
Three fishing settlements developed around Syltefjorden - Nordfjord, Hamna, and Ytre Syltefjord - but all were abandoned during the 1900s.
The indigenous Sámi people have maintained their traditions in the Syltefjorden region, contributing to the area's northern Norwegian identity.
Visitors can access the fjord through the municipality of Båtsfjord, where summer cottages provide accommodation options near the water.
The Syltefjordstauran mountain cliffs along the northern shore host substantial seabird colonies, creating a natural observation point.
