On day 2, you’ll reach Andenes, the top location in the world for whale watching. Hop on a speedy RIB boat for an unforgettable expedition in the Arctic waters. Since you're sitting low on the water in a RIB boat, you'll feel the power of the ocean and enjoy spectacular views of these impressive creatures.

During this time, various species migrate through these nutrient-rich waters.

The experienced guides share their extensive knowledge about the ecosystem, always emphasizing respect for the animals and their natural habitat.

On day 3, you'll swap your campervan for a boat and set out into the ocean to meet the most charming residents of the north. The puffin, with its colorful beak and distinctive flight, is an icon of Vesterålen and the Lofoten.

As the boat sails past steep bird cliffs and remote rocky islands, you'll see thousands of these “clowns of the ocean” nesting, diving, and soaring through the air. It's a vibrant spectacle that you can admire like nowhere else.

It’s the ultimate way to admire the sharp peaks of the Lofoten wall from the other side.
