LOCATION
The Scandinavian Peninsula is a peninsula located at the northwest corner of Europe and bounded by the Gulf of Bothnia, the Baltic Sea, the Kattegat, the Skagerrak, the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea and the Barents Sea.
It extends from Russia and Finland in the north-east, and the southernmost part reaches out east of the Danish Straits towards Germany and Poland
ABOUT SCANDINAVIA
The Scandinavia with its majestic fjords are on of the few remaining places in the world whose natural beauty never ceases to astonish. While cruising through islands and skerries, the scenery suddenly becomes overpoweringly dramatic with the appearance of fjord lands.
Each fjord is different from its neighbor and one could go on and on listening to the roar of waterfalls, gazing at flocks of auks in the fairytale light, and marveling at tiny villages that cling to the steep sides of the fjord walls, thus making for a great cruise.
