Activity description

Attention nature, photography, and wildlife enthusiasts! This 3.5-hour evening cruise through the Lofoten Archipelago from Svolvær is made all the more spectacular by the incredible Midnight Sun. Welcoming adventurers ages 13 and up! 

Located in Northern Norway, the famed Lofoten Archipelago is not only known for its numerous islets and islands but also for its impressive fjords, scenic Arctic landscapes, and diverse wildlife species. During the summer, the sun does not set below the horizon, leading to extended periods of daylight, which is often referred to as the 'Midnight Sun'. A boat tour in Lofoten under the Midnight Sun is one of the most unique ways to explore this breathtaking region!

You'll be welcomed aboard the luxury sailing yacht, the S/Y Stella Oceana, by a professional and friendly crew. The vessel has an ice classification and is 100 feet (32 metres) long. It is equipped with 2 outer decks and a cosy interior saloon in addition to an 8-person outdoor hot tub. You can upgrade your experience by purchasing a private charter or hot tub access.

Your adventure begins at the meeting point in Svolvær where you and your group (a maximum of 12 participants) will be greeted by your Captain, a former Sea Captain of the Norwegian Navy. After an itinerary and safety briefing, the fun starts! You'll cruise in between islets, through the open sea, and along the mountainous coastline of Litlmolla Island. If the wind is in your favour, they will unfurl the sails to glide silently along the crystal-clear waters. 

Since evenings are the best time to observe the region's diverse wildlife, make sure to keep a lookout and have your camera ready to capture the moment! This relaxing tour is made even better by your knowledgeable guide, who will share stories about the area's history as well as its natural world as you sip a warm cup of tea, coffee, or hot chocolate and enjoy delicious cookies. At the end of the cruise, you'll return to the original departure point in Svolvær with memories that will last a lifetime.

Witness the awe-inspiring natural phenomenon of the Midnight Sun while taking in Norway's breathtaking scenery during this cruise in Lofoten from Svolvær. Book your next adventure in Norway today!
