WINTER WHALE WATCHING IN SKJERVØY

MOST DAYLIGHT AND MORE WATCHING

The winter in the Arctic means shorter light during the day. Our trips starts early and we use all the daylight there is. This means that you get most out of our whale watching tour! We approach the whales respectfully in their proximity. The whale watching tour takes 2-3 hours.

SHORTEST DISTANCE TO THE WHALES

The whale watching starts from the harbour at Skjervøy Brygge, and there is a short distance out to the whales. Please be at Hotel Maritim Skjervøy, 45 minutes prior to departure. We provide warm suits for all our guests.

our guides are experts on whales

Our companies Whalesafari Andenes and Whale2Sea combine whale watching with research on the whales. Our guides are highly trained and will tell you about the different species we see. Both the captain and the guides are also trained in safety and will take good care of our guests!

 

WE OFFER BUS FROM TROMSØ 

We strive to be as sustainable as possible and give the best offer to our guests. That is why we offer transport with bus Tromsø-Skjervøy and back. Both so that we have the shortest boat-transfer to the whales, but also so that our guest don’t have to drive themselves on the arctic roads. The comfort on our bus and a safe transport is important for us. You can choose the bus as an ad-on when you book your whale watching tour!
