Birds- and wildlife tour
Witness the variety of wildlife in our region of Arctic Norway
Join us cruising the fjords in our safe and steady Rib, in search for birds, whales and other mammals of our region.
This is a unique chance of witness the variety of wildlife in Arctic Norway. Is all dynamic and the presence of the species varies during the year.
Our beloved residents dolphins; white beaked dolphins and harbor porpoise are to be seen in our areas all year round. These cetaceans move frequently in our big fjord system, so we need to tune the eyes and hopefully we are in the right place at the right time to spot them.
We are happy to also time to time see the other cute residents marine mammals seals and otters. They are clever with their camouflage, so they are a little difficult to spot.
In the end of January, after the winter whales ends their feeding party in the fjords around Skjervøy, whales/ cetaceans are still time to time being observed, such as traveling whales passing into/ through our fjord system.
We also keep an eye on land for moose and reindeer.
We are also pleased to witness the amazing diversity of birdlife of the region, special during spring and summer time. The eagles and cormorants are majestic in their size and wing movement.
Other seabirds that we might be lucky to see are puffins, guillemots, razorbills, little auks, arctic terns and ducks like the eider ducks and long taled ducks.
It is important for us to make sure the understanding of unpredictability and the coincident of observing the mentioned wildlife during our activity. We never know which species will appear during our activity. And that is exactly what makes wildlife so amazing!
