Aurora Night Cruise

Chasing the dancing lights across the dark fjords

Duration 3.5–4.5 hours
Group 4–6 guests
Season Autumn – Spring (aurora season)
From kr 1 800 per person

Intimate VIP sea expedition — 4–6 guests, away from noise and city light pollution

Slip away from the city lights into the dark fjord waters and watch green and violet ribbons dance across the sky — mirrored in the black surface of the ocean. An intimate evening cruise built entirely around the aurora.

  • Hot drinks (coffee, tea, local infusions)
  • Traditional Norwegian pastries or snacks
  • Wi-Fi on board

We sail onto the quiet, dark waters of the surrounding fjords — around Kvaløya or Ramfjorden — the perfect backdrop for watching the sky, far from the city's light pollution.
