Activity description

Experience the awe-inspiring natural phenomenon that is the midnight sun in Northern Norway on a 2-3-hour boat tour from Skjervøy! Take in the incredible scenery and observe diverse species of wildlife while also learning about the area's fascinating history and culture.

Occurring in Northern Norway and other polar regions during the summer months, the 'midnight sun' refers to the period when the sun remains visible for a continuous 24 hours, never setting below the horizon. A magical and surreal experience, the additional daylight hours offer unique chances for sightseeing, photography, and wildlife encounters! 

With a maximum number of 12 participants, this boat tour aims to show Skjervøy from a completely different perspective. After meeting your experienced Captain and guide at the departure point, you'll be fitted in your thermal suit and life jacket. Then, after boarding the boat, the adventure begins! You will pass areas imbued with a remarkable history that dates back to the Stone Age and will learn about Sami culture and even geology!

Don't forget to bring your camera! Whales, dolphins, eagles, and puffins (to name a few) are well-known residents of Skjervøy. While their presence is never guaranteed, the odds are definitely in your favour. 

Don't miss this amazing opportunity to experience the midnight sun in Northern Norway and book this unforgettable boat tour from Skjervøy today!
