Norway Haukland beach
This beach is less known than others like Skagsanden but is a nice spot typically for northern lights.
There are quite some rocks and pools near to serve as a foreground
This allows moving away a bit from the sand beach where most photographers will stay for firm ground.

Photography Tips
Ultra-wide angle openings at 2.8 and a tripod are a must.
You also absolutely need crampons in winter to walk on the rocks as being wet by waves, they are also very icy and sometimes the first one not but the next is and in the dark, you don't see it. A low angle will do best.
