Touch upon the little fishing hamlet of Gjesvær (population only about 120) and then journey on toward North Cape. Along the way, you will receive an introduction on the local flora and fauna.

You are en route to one of the world’s most exciting and stunning nature reserves, Gjesværstappan, which is almost 16 km west of North Cape and encircled by the Arctic Ocean.

From the vessel study Finnmark’s largest flock of puffins and large numbers of kittiwakes. During the nesting season, the air and ground teem with life. Mighty sea eagles with massive wingspans hover above in search of prey, while guillemots, razorbills, cormorants, Arctic skuas, northern fulmars, Brünnich’s guillemots and the large northern gannet dive about, filling the air with a cacophony of shrieks and screeches.

If you can join us in the autumn months, you may also catch sightings of Europe’s smallest seabird, the British storm-petrel.

Weather and time permitting, the tour makes a stop at the crew’s secret favourite places. This is where there is often a good chance of seeing seals swim and play around the boat. This is a memorable and fun trip for the entire family.
