Norway Northern Lights & Whales - Sailing
Norway Northern Lights & Whales by Sailing Ship 8 Days
Norway Northern Lights & Whales by Sailing Ship 8 Days
Aboard: SV Rembrandt van Rijn
Enjoy an exciting sail aboard a beautiful traditional three-mast schooner in search of Norway’s abundance of marine wildlife. This wonderful journey will take you around the spectacular fjords of northern Norway on a whale safari that is certain not to disappoint. Sailing around and visiting exceptionally scenic areas such as Senja, Andfjorden and Sommarøy, you will be on a constant lookout for the bountiful whales and other marine life that is found here including humpback and sperm whales, and maybe even orcas. And as the sun sets on each day the anticipation will build as we hope for the skies to provide us with the most spectacular light show – the natural phenomenon of the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights).
Please note: As this is a whale safari aboard a traditional sailing ship, your exact itinerary will be determined by the expected locations of the whales, as well as weather conditions. A completely different route may be taken depending on the season.
Various dates between October and March are available each year. Please enquire for full rates and dates.
