The journey between Moskenes and Værøy takes you through one of the most ferocious ocean currents, the famous maelstrom that inspired Jules Verne in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and Edgar Allan Poe in his short story A Descent into the Maelstrom. The island villages of Sørland and Norland have around 750 inhabitants. Værøy boasts a white sandy beach protected by strangely beautiful mountains. The smooth rock walls rise to a height of 400 m, making access impossible except by sea. One of the last of the Lofoten islands, Værøy is a veritable bird sanctuary. Capturing eagles is one of Værøy's traditions.
