Discover the people, wildlife and ways of life in the beautiful Træna archipelago on this enjoyable island-hopping adventure.
Highlights
Explore the islands of Husøya and Selvær, and sail close to Sandøy and Holmen
See some of Norway’s most beautiful beaches and get to know the people and ways of an island community
Spot migratory birds and perhaps even a Sea Eagle
Learn about the unique production of eider down and seaweed on Selvær
How it works
From Husøya, you’ll sail to Sanna, where those going on a hike disembark – we'll pick them up again later.
On your way to Selvær, you’ll pass Sandøy and Holmen, two of Træna’s smallest and most secluded island communities, known for their beautiful beaches and old harbours. Feast your eyes while your guide fills you in on the fascinating details about your surroundings.
Selvær, Træna’s second-biggest island, has a cosy community feel and a wealth of birdlife. Around 50 people live on Selvær and local people still collect and clean the down of the eider ducks for prized eider down. In spring, divers hand-harvest seaweed. Your guide will regale you with tales of local life while you drink coffee or tea and taste a local speciality before you return via Sanna to Husøya, where you can further explore on foot.
