Spitsbergen is the island of Norway. It is located in approximately halfway between mainland Norway and the North Pole. That sounds very cold, but it is not so cold. Since the North Atlantic current warms up the temperature, the average summer temperature is about 6 °C(43 °F) and the winter is −16 °C (3 °F). Spitsbergen is the home for many arctic animals such as seals, beluga whales, bowhead whales, walruses, reindeer and polar bears.
