Arctic Whale Tours

About us

From November to January, we operate whale safaris from both Tromsø and Skjervøy — two unique starting points to explore the Arctic fjords and witness humpback whales and orcas as they follow the great herring migration.

Who we are
Our mission is to create memorable days at sea that combine comfort, safety and respect for wildlife. With experienced captains and passionate guides, we share deep knowledge about whales, the fragile marine ecosystem and the coastal traditions of Northern Norway.

Our tours

• From Tromsø: Sail aboard MS Alba, a spacious Westamaran catamaran with heated lounges, panoramic windows and outdoor decks. A full-day adventure through Arctic fjords with whale watching, hot drinks and biscuits included.
• From Skjervøy: Step aboard RS 78 Hagbart Waage, a historic rescue vessel refitted for passenger comfort. This 2–3 hour safari offers authentic close-to-nature encounters and the charm of a traditional Norwegian boat.

Our promise — the Whale Pass
Nature can never be guaranteed, but our Whale Pass ensures your journey north is never wasted. If no whales, dolphins or porpoises are seen on your tour, you are welcome back on another safari free of charge (subject to availability).

On board

• Hot coffee, tea and biscuits are always included.
• Light meals and other refreshments may be available for purchase, depending on the tour.
• All tours include safety equipment and are suitable for families.
