What to expect?
As we leave the harbor of Svolvær, we will set out in the direction of Full Steam near the town of Henningsvær. On the way, we will deploy our underwater drone to explore the underwater world. Our guides will share information about what we see and keep an eye out for the Northern Lights we might spot along the way.
About 1 hour into the tour we step on land at Full Steam on the outskirts of the historic fishing village of Henningsvær. We will visit this 200-year-old cod steaming warehouse where you'll hear tales and stories of the the fishing history and culture of the region. Taste a bite of true Norwegian caviar to bring the stories alive.
Around 21:00 we jump back aboard and sail closer to Henningsvær before we set back out into the darkness of Vestfjorden where we'll have the opportunity to see the magical Northern Lights if the weather allows. We'll slowly make our way along the 'wall of Lofoten with rugged peaks towards our home port in Svolvær.
