Sandfjorden is one of the best-kept secrets in Varanger: the cliffs drop straight into the sea, and then suddenly there is a white beach.

On the way we pass Makkaur lighthouse, built in 1928 in Greek style and with no road to it — out at the mouth of Båtsfjorden, carrying both war history and coastal history.

It takes about an hour each way. The rest of the time we spend ashore — walking, looking at the lighthouse, eating, and swimming if you like, in water that stays clear all the way down.

Lunch is grilled on the beach.
