Eisbär (Ursus maritimus) seen from the zodiac. Polar bear on Kong Karl XII Øya, the northernmost part of Svalbard, Norway. Expedition cruise vessel Greg Mortimer in Svalbard archipelago, Arctic Norway. Karl XII-øya (English: Carl XII Island) is an island north of the island of Nordaustlandet in Svalbard, Norway. Except for Sjuøyane, Karl XII-øya is the northernmost part of Svalbard, and thus also Norway. Karl XII-øya is a roughly 2 km long, narrow island situated about 34 km north of Nordaustlandet proper. The 105 meter high Kongsberget in the north and the 30 meter high Drabanten in the south are two of the highest points on the island. The nearest point on Nordaustlandet is Bergstrømodden, but there are two islands, Nordre Repøya and Søre Repøya that are closer to Karl XII-øya. Hence, the distance from Nordre Repøya is about 25 km.
