| Bjarkøy abides in the shadow of Grytøy |
|
Bjarkøy does not thunder forth from the Arctic Sea like its neighboring island Grytøy, with its twin thousand meter peaks that are so bold as to block all sunlight from Bjarkøy for weeks as the winter sun struggles to clear the horizon. No, Bjarkøy is a truly subtle and hospitable island in this sea of mælstroms and rocky heights. This humble isle stands unprotected to the north to endure winter arctic gales, and openly greets the fabled midnight sun in the summer.
