Arctic Boat Safari

Deluxe boat trip to see coastal nature and fjords

Arctic Boat Safari

Description

One of best ways to experience unique landscape of Senja is to join Arctic Boat Safari.

It is a boat trip with our Deluxe Sargo 36 feet Big Boat with heating, comfortable sitting area inside and possibility to walk around the deck for greater views.

Arctic Boat Safari is focusing on spotting sea-eagles, marine wildlife and beautiful nature. During the tour we will visit some of the beautiful coastal destinations, admire remoteness and wilerness of Arctic nature and if the time permits, we will also sneak to take a look at local fishermen's daily lifes.

Our guides will make sure this is an interesting experience that may or may not include spotting any of the wildlife species, notably sea-eagles, seals, humpback whales or killer whales*.

* please keep in mind that whale sightings are very seasonal and not regular, therefore we do not guarantee that whales will be possible to spot on any of our tours

Ski Touring

Description

The ultimate snow experience of Senja!

There are plenty local peaks offering excellent ski touring possibilities. There is no lifts around, so as will be skinning up to some of the earth's most remote skiing locations, a beautiful landscape of greater Senja with ocean around will emerge.  Once at top you can admire breathtaking view,  then take a deep breath and feel the adrenaline of going down in fresh powder, most likely making the first descend of the day on that trail.

Ski touring is addictive, exhausting and adrenalin-pumping. Mefjord Brygge is a perfect starting point for Senja's peaks, such as Keipen, Store Hesten, Roalden, Burstind, Stormoa, Kvænan, just to name a few.

We are an ideal base for your adventures and explorations of the region.

We cooperate with local professional guides Sans Senja who will be very enthusiastic to take you on the adventures and show you around some of the most spectacular skiing routes. Some experience in skiing is essential, but even if you are very experienced or professional skier it is always a good idea to have a local guide with you, to be safe and make most of your time on Senja. It is also a great company and fun to spend some days on the slopes with other like-minded skiers.

The reservations can be made via us (we provide a full-service version of the activity) or directly at Sans Senja.
