Silent Whale Watching
Get a unique perspective on the magnificent Humpback Whales and Orcas as they feed in the herring-rich fjords of the Norwegian Arctic. Join a daily whale watching tour from Tromsø with special hybrid-electric boats, which minimise disturbance to nature and whales.
We depart from Tromsø at 08:00 in the crisp arctic morning air. Our destination is a whale watchers dream, the feeding grounds of both Orcas and Humpback whales. We arrive in time to enjoy the few hours of polar daylight that the Tromsø winter season gives us. On the way to the whale watching area, you can take in the breathtaking views of the Tromsø fjords and frozen landscapes of the arctic fjords from our hybrid-electric boat.
Our captain will keep an eye out for the whales. Sometimes it takes a little longer to spot an Orca or Humpback, but our guides have some nifty tricks to spot them. While we search for the whales, our passionate guides will share their personal stories from the Tromsø area and interesting sights that we can see from the fjords. Of course, a whale watching tour would not be complete without an abundance of information about the Orca & Humpback Whale.
Designed for whale watching, our boat has comfortable, warm lounges with panoramic windows, so that you will have a front-row seat to the whales from wherever you are. You’ll find a selection of food and drinks for purchase onboard.
*Please note that the duration of this tour depends on the whales’ location and can range from 6-8 hours. The exact season varies year to year, but is usually between November and January. Our crew will do their best to find the whales but we can not guarantee whales sightings.
