Uttakleiv Beach, located in Norway, is renowned for its picturesque views and is considered the most photogenic beach in Norway. The beach boasts white sand, green grass, emerald-colored water, and polished silver stones on the rocky shore.
During winter sunsets, visitors can witness the Borealis phenomenon from the beach. It is easily accessible by car from Leknes, with ample parking.
The beach offers camping and picnic opportunities on large boulders. The ideal time to visit for beach activities is the beginning of summer, although May and September are also less crowded.
Winter is a good time to visit for viewing the northern lights and to save on tickets and hotel accommodations.
Visitor reviews highlight the beautiful scenery and views of the beach and surrounding mountains. However, visitors complain about the crowds and the need to arrive early for the best spot. Some also mention the disappointment of having to pay for camping and the lack of cleanliness due to sheep discharge. Despite this, the beach is worth a visit for its scenic beauty and unique features like the nearby Dragons Eye.
