Silent Whale Watching
Overview
Available languages
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.

Great whale watching trip

4.00We had a great time on this boat trip. We were able to see the arctic circle, fjords, lots of orcas and even some fin whales too. This was a unique experience and one I’d highly recommend.
Long trip to get to where...

5.00A great way to see the Norway fjords and see some whales too! We saw orca and humpback whales. The food and drinks were reasonably priced and the crew was very knowledgeable. I highly recommend putting this on your itinerary!
A Once in a Lifetime Opportunity

4.00This was a once in a lifetime opportunity to see so many humpback whales in their natural habitat. Started off with an early morning boat ride to the fjord. Boat ride was mostly smooth sometimes choppy, it was about 4hrs each way plus about 1.5hrs stalled at the fjord watching the whales. Long journey, but definitely worth the time. We went towards thens of January which is when the feeding season ends before they migrate to the Caribbean.
