Silent Whale Watching by Hybrid-Electric Boat from Tromsø
Overview
Get a unique perspective on the majestic Humpbacks, Fin, Sperm whales and/or Orca's as they feed in the herring-rich fjords of the Arctic. With purpose made hybrid-electric boats for whale watching, we minimise disturbance to nature and whales.
Leaving Tromsø in the morning, we head to where the whales are in time to enjoy the short hours of daylight. On the way you can take in the breathtaking views of frozen landscapes in comfortable, panoramic lounges and 2 decks.
We use a hybrid engine to reach the whale’s feeding grounds, and as we near the whales, we switch to a silent electric engine that allows us to get closer without disturbing them.
Please note that the duration of the trip depends on the whales’ location. It takes up to 3.5 hours to get to the whales and can therefore range from 8-9 hours.
Please note that whale sightings are not guaranteed.
What you’ll do
We pass by Lyngstuva lighthouse on the way to Skjervøy. It is set at the peak of Lyngen Alps
We reach the town of Skjervøy. In this area the whales feed on the herring. We go in search of humpbacks and/or orca's in this vast area.
We spend between 1-2 hours with the whales, depending on how fast we can find them and how long they stay around.
There is no guarantee on seeing whales, but our captains and guides will try our best.
As we return to Tromsø, we sail past the Arctic Cathedral that is set at the end of the Tromsø bridge.
