You're standing on the North Cape, on the island of Magerøya, at the very top of Norway. Walk over to the edge of the plateau. The cliff drops more than three hundred metres straight down, and in front of you lies the Barents Sea. This is where the Norwegian Sea, part of the Atlantic, meets the Arctic Ocean.
