Come and explore Spitsbergen with its bustling wildlife and stunning glaciers and join us on our boat Vargen for an adventure to look for walruses, view glaciers and really enjoy the majestic nature of Svalbard from the water.
Our adventure starts in the morning at 09:30 in the harbour of Longyearbyen, where our boat Vargen is ready to take you into the wild nature of Spitsbergen. We will set course towards Borebukta. Here we have a good chance to see the walruses in their natural habitat. We will stop and observe these majestic animals, listening to the sounds they make, laying on top of each other, crawl over each other, or see them hunting in the water. As with all wildlife we cannot guarantee any sightings, however after the walruses became a protected species in Svalbard, the population has recovered greatly and they are finally becoming a common sight.
After our walrus observing, you will be served a nice lunch on board as we set course to Ymerbukta, where we can enjoy a fantastic view over the glacier Esmarkbreen.
Remember to keep your binoculars ready for when we cross Isfjorden. This fjord is known as the feeding area for many whales during summer, and therefore can be a great place to spot and observe these majestic animals.
Enjoy the beauty and nature this expedition offers. Take a moment of silence while floating in front of massive glaciers, listening to majestic animals and just be amazed.
