Norway is a country located in the western and northern parts of the Scandinavian Peninsula in northern Europe, bordered by the North Sea on the south and the Norwegian Sea on the west. The biggest airport in the country is Oslo Airport in Gardermoen, which serves many major international and pretty much all domestic airlines. The roads are very well kept, but Norway's craggy coastline makes roads and trains slow, so domestic flights are very popular. Norway is a ruggedly beautiful country of mountains, fjords and glaciers (Jostedals is the biggest in Europe). Need some information about diving in Norway? We can help.
