What you can expect

Enjoy a whale-watching adventure onboard an open RIB boat. Search for humpback whales, fin whales and orcas in their natural habitat as you admire the incredible landscape of the Arctic.

Meet your bus driver at 05:20 at the pick up point at Tromsø Havn Prostneset at the bus terminal (Samuel Arnesens gate 5, 9008, Tromsø). Please be ready at the area/terminal where the busses depart from and settle in for a comfortable and scenic drive out to Skjervøy.

You can relax on the 4-hour bus journey to the island of Skjervøy, the town closest to the feeding grounds of the whales. Here, you are met by your skipper for a pre-departure briefing and provided with all you need to stay safe and warm.

Then, the fun begins as you speed through the stunning fjords of Northern Norway, searching for a dorsal fin or the splash of a fluke. Have your camera at the ready to capture the stunning sights of whales in their Arctic feeding grounds. Look out for Orcas, Humpback Whales, Fin Whales, White-tailed Sea Eagles and much more. Learn about them and other local marine life with your experienced skipper.

After approximately three hours at sea, you will return to harbour and warm up with a hot drink in the dressing room. From here, your guide will escort you back to the bus and give you a baguette to enjoy on the journey back to Tromsø.
