Wintertime Lofoten

We have created safari sailing escapades to show you as much as possible in the shortest possible time. Safari – these are short cruises after which you would want more – just right for the first time!
 
The shipping area is so amazing that you could easily spend three weeks here. You will see for yourself that this seemingly simple, austere land is packed with attractions: auroras, killer whales, perhaps whales, reindeer, the first snow and poles set up for plows on the roads, eagles soaring over a yacht in the Trollfjord, fairy-tale ports, mountains and trekking – everything is possible in just 9 days, but a lot will really depend on the weather. You won’t regret it, we know such ports where you can even go skiing in the evening after sailing during the day.

In Short:

  • you are sailing a well-prepared for sailing insulated yacht with specially prepared heating with a captain with extensive arctic experience
  • you are not just a tourist – you are part of the crew
  • All time- if you want to learn about sailing or Svalbard we are happy share our knowledge
  • From Bodo by Lofoten we will sail to Senja & Tromso!
  • Lofoten & Senja in wintertime are much closer to Svalbard mountains
  • We have an opprtunity to see hhales/ orcas or Aurora Borealis!

Map

This is one of the sailing possibilities. Always we are choosing the accurate route according :

  • your wish / needs 
  • the actual weather/ ice conditions
  • the all guest preparation
  • the amount of crew onboard (you can choose to sail with a helmsman only or a helmsman & a guide)
