A National Tourist Route along the western edge of Andoya island in Vesteralen, Arctic Norway, running between Andenes and Bjornskinn mainly on Fv82. The mostly level coastal road passes the white-sand Bleikstranda beach, steep headlands and the Bukkekjerka rest stop, in an area known for whale watching off the Bleik Canyon. Mind the exposed coastal weather, free-roaming sheep and winter ice.
