Ethical Small Group
Adventures
We take maximum 4 guests per yacht so we are flexible to take personal interests and wishes into account (dietary etc.). The yacht serves as base, so you live and sleep on board and explore during the day. It gives us excellent opportunities to enjoy the wildlife and visit places where many boats cannot go.
Our skippers and guides have a unique knowledge of the area and will be able to take you to breathtaking locations while being where the action is. Our goal is also to let our guests experience the local culture and eat high quality local food and all meals are prepared and served on board.

Able To Follow...
As the migration patterns of the herring changes, there is no ‘fixed’ or guaranteed location and the herring and whales can move to anywhere in the vast network of fjords this coastline is famous for.
As a liveaboard operation we are able to follow the activity (not bound to accommodation on shore) and we are constantly in touch with local sources to find where the whales are active. This also means we often explore new beautiful locations, offering guests beautiful views of the stunning Norwegian fjords.
Northern Lights
& Arctic Landscapes
Our orca and humpback expeditions take place right underneath the Northern Lights Oval, making it the ideal location to see these magical lights. Tromsø is one of the best places on earth to observe the northern lights and each year thousands of tourists travel to this region only to see them. We are fortunate enough to have it as a 'bonus' to our winter expeditions and the northern lights can be observed on most nights where we have clear skies.
The northern lights are the strongest from the beginning of September until the end of April and our Arctic Freediving expeditions all fall well within this period.
Modern Yachts
As Your Base
The best way to see the North Norwegian coast line! Our yachts also have high quality Stand Up Paddle Boards and some other 'extras' for our guests to enjoy.
