Sandnessjøen: Sea Sailing Cruise

Set sail on a day cruise with the Havseiler and explore the stunning archipelago outside Herøy. The local captain shares salty stories from the islands’ long maritime history. You may even stop for a swim or a refreshment along the way.

Experience Helgeland’s coastline, named one of the world’s most beautiful by National Geographic. UNESCO has recognized the region’s unique coastal culture as a World Heritage site. This cruise gives you a rare chance to see the area up close.

Learn the basics of sailing or improve your skills with the guidance of our experienced crew. Enjoy a morning fruit, breakfast, and a dip in the pristine blue waters before hours of sailing. Lunch follows, with time to relax and enjoy the scenic surroundings.

The boat returns to port in the afternoon for dinner at Havkanten Restaurant. If the weather allows, the outdoor seating offers a magical view of the sea. The cruise is ideal for families, friends, or private groups seeking adventure and relaxation.

The voyage is a mix of active sailing, practical seamanship, and memorable nature experiences. Participants help with sailing, lookout, and navigation throughout the trip. Even those with no prior sailing experience can join and learn along the way.

Modern, comfortable boats like the 46-foot Bavaria Holiday are used, featuring three double cabins, two bathrooms, a large common area, and a fully equipped galley. Safety and communication equipment are advanced and maintained according to Norwegian maritime standards.

Guests also have access to kayaks, SUP boards, freediving gear, and small boats for extra exploration and free play. The trip combines structured activities with time for personal adventure on the water.

All meals during the sailing cruise are included, with dinner prepared together on board using fresh catch and seasonal ingredients. Breakfast, snacks, coffee, tea, juice, and other essentials are provided. Full access to all safety equipment, sailing gear, and onboard amenities is included for a comfortable experience.

It’s important to bring warm and weather-appropriate clothing, as conditions on the sea can be colder and windier than on land. While the cruise provides all safety gear, meals, and onboard equipment, personal items like extra gloves, hats, or rain jackets are not included, so pack accordingly to stay comfortable throughout the trip.
