Uttakleiv Beach - Lofoten, Norway

Did you know that there are countless small islands off the coast of mainland Norway? The Lofoten Islands are known for their adorable villages and their proximity to the Northern Lights, but that's not all. They're also known for the stunning Uttakleiv Beach, which proves that appearances can really be deceiving. Although this place looks like a postcard, it's also extremely dangerous and has caused the death of countless visitors.

Although the beach itself is safe, the water is not. The Arctic climate is not tourist-friendly, and the cold waters are not to be taken lightly. So, stay out in the warm!
