About the experience
Eco-friendly travel to and from Lofoten by sailboat
You may have heard of the Lofoten islands? Almost the whole world now has – and with good reason. This mountainous range of islands stretching far out into the Norwegian Sea is a fantastic area. On board with us on this trip you will get a salty taste of the Lofoten islands by sailboat. Not to forget that sailing is the original and most rewarding way to reach the Lofoten islands from mainland Norway!
Travel like a local
With our sailboat we navigate out to the Lofoten islands like locals and travellers have done for thousands of years. When we cross over the West fjord and the Lofoten mountains rise up and fill out the horizon, you will understand! By boat, off the beaten track of all road based travelling.
Night sailing in daylight from Svolvær to Bodø
We set off at 7pm. Even if we are sailing in the middle of the night, there will be daylight!
After getting to know the team and the boat in Svovlær harbour we head south, and cross over Vestfjorden, the West fjord, during the night. The midnight sun might light up our way. You are welcome to take part in the sailing or to stretch your legs in our comfortable cabins.
