The inside story

Alongside being a top spot for catching a glimpse of the Northern Lights, Tromso is a dream destination for any whale watcher or enthusiast. Humpback whales, orcas, and killer whales swim to the coasts of Tromso, fjord and surrounding islands in the winter season as they come to feed on the Herring that migrate here. It’s a spectacular sight to see the largest living animals on the planet up close.

Breathe in the Arctic air as you sail on the waters in search of the giants of the sea and admire their behaviour. Be mesmerised as they leap out of the water, make a splash, or take that iconic shot of their tail diving back under. A friendly fin wave might even be on the cards. You might even get to see dolphins, sea eagles and all sorts of birds. The whale watching season runs from early November to mid-January – also coinciding with the prime time to catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights – making Tromso the perfect spot to make your Arctic bucket list come true.

With a variety of tours to choose from, rest assured that local skippers will take you to the best spotting areas, some may go to the nearby island of Skjervoy – another prime location – sharing stories and local history along the way.
