The North Cape

From Honningsvåg, you’ll travel by bus above the 71st parallel to North Cape – a dramatic clifftop plateau rising 307 metres from the ocean. Gaze in awe at the stark yet beautiful scenery as you stand at continental Europe’s most northerly point, casting your eyes over the sea towards the North Pole. The iconic globe sculpture marks the spot – and makes for an unmissable photograph.

In summer, you might spot herds of grazing reindeer along the nearby clifftop plateaus. In wintertime, the unspoilt white plains and snow-capped mountains will reflect the soft Arctic light.

You'll also visit the North Cape Hall, where you'll watch an impressive 180° panoramic film about the region through four seasons, learn more about the area’s long history through exhibitions in the underground tunnel, and pop into the world's northernmost chapel. Stop in at the small museum and a souvenir shop before boarding the bus back to rejoin the ship.
