Arctic Experience

Your Arctic Experience

Whale Watch Norway prides itself on customer service. This is why we keep our group size to a maximum of Six persons so we can provide high service to our customers. Our main aim for your trip is to make sure you have encounters with Orca whales and Humpback whales either from the shore or from the boat, see the Northern lights, eagles, moose and catch a prime Norwegian cod for your dinner.
During the months of November – February large pods of Orca whales and Humpback whales visit Kvaløya. They are making there annual migration from North to the south in search of herring. There are two possibilities to see the whales, either from the shore or from the boat. We often find we can get better viewing from the boat. If the weather conditions are to poor to go out on the boat we shall try to watch the whales from the shore.
Upon arrival at Tromsø airport you will be collected by myself and transferred to our accommodation on the island of Kvaløya which is a 40 min drive from the airport. Upon arrival you will be given your apartment and taken to the restaurant for a cooked traditional Norwegian meal.

Day one:
Breakfast will be served between 9am – 10am
At 10:30am your whale watching experience will begin. The 37ft Charter boat we use is located Five meters from the restaurant door. Before getting on the boat you will be kitted out with thermal suites, hats and gloves.
WWN prides its self on giving its guests and close and intimate experience with the whales so your group will never be more then Six persons.
As we make our way out of the fjord we hope to see the whales in the first hour and spend as much time as we can with them.
