Description

Experience an unforgettable whale watching tour on Norway’s Altafjord, departing from Alta. Set sail on the comfortable Sea Runner, a heated vessel designed to keep you warm while you search for orcas and humpback whales. Your expert captain navigates the fjord, increasing your chances of spotting these majestic marine creatures.

Between November and February, Altafjord comes alive with migrating herring, attracting incredible orcas and humpback whales. Enjoy the panoramic views of snow-capped mountains and the wintry Norwegian sky, whether you’re cozy inside the heated lounge or out on the deck breathing in the crisp arctic air.

The Sea Runner is equipped with modern amenities such as a toilet, WiFi, and screens for presentations, ensuring a convenient and enjoyable journey for all. Life jackets are available for your safety, and a sturdy railing surrounds the deck for added peace of mind.

Guests are welcome to bring backpacks and cameras to capture the magic of the fjord and its wildlife. Please dress warmly in layers to stay comfortable in the cold conditions. While there may be brief periods when stepping outside isn’t possible, plenty of opportunities are provided to admire the scenery and seek out whales.

This tour is suitable for all ages, including families with small children, as long as passengers can walk a few steps. Don’t miss your chance to witness the breathtaking beauty of Altafjord and its remarkable wildlife. Book your whale watching adventure now to secure your spot during peak season!
