Berlevåg lies at 70.86° N in Finnmark, Norway, about 478 km north of the Arctic Circle. With a geomagnetic latitude of about 67.2°, it sits under the auroral oval: even quiet nights (Kp 1–2) can bring aurora overhead. Over the long term, a dark, clear night here has roughly a 75% chance of some visible aurora.
Darkness is never the problem in winter: the sun stays below the horizon from mid-November to late January, and nights with at least two hours of real darkness run from early September to early April. Between mid-May and late July the midnight sun makes aurora impossible to see. Around the winter solstice the sun is more than 12° below the horizon for about 16.5 hours a day.
Clouds decide most nights. The hourly score above uses the live cloud forecast for this exact spot; for trip planning, the Alta guide (238 km away) covers the best months and clear-night odds for the wider region.
