Review:

Known for its striking mountain scenery, Lofoten is an untamed archipelago that sprawls across the Norwegian Sea inside the Arctic Circle. The northern lights can be seen here between September and mid-April, and anyone who visits between late May and mid-July will get to experience the majesty of the midnight sun. Plenty of small fishing villages dot the islands, providing visitors with food, accommodation, and the chance to learn about traditional Nordic culture. The archipelago is one of the best places in Norway to surf, but it's also very popular with people who want to hike, ski, SCUBA dive, and fish.
