Additional Information
'Spectacular' is no overstatement for the Vesteralen Islands in Northern
Norway. The archipelago sits within the Arctic Circle and offers an
intoxicating cocktail of fjords and mountains all teeming with wildlife, from
soaring eagles to sea otters and reindeer. Crucially, thanks to the Gulf
Stream, winters here are relatively mild.
Our base in Buksnesfjord is perfectly located to explore the beauty of this
landscape by day and its skyscape by night. Needless to say, this far north
the Aurora is rarely troubled by light pollution and displays, though never
guaranteed, can be extraordinary.
