Bothnian Bay National Park
Low islands shaped by post-glacial rebound in Lapland's Bothnian Bay
Almost all of this park is sea, with only 2.5 square kilometres of its 157 square kilometres on land. The islands are formed by post-glacial rebound, so the scenery is still in a constant state of change.
