Day
Daily whale tours from Tromsø
We depart from Tromsø in the crisp arctic morning air. Our destination is a whale watcher's dream, the feeding grounds of both Humpbacks, Fin, and/or Orca's. We arrive in time to enjoy the few hours of polar daylight that the Tromsø winter season gives us. On the way to the whale watching area, you can take in the breathtaking views of the Tromsø fjords and frozen landscapes of the arctic fjords from our hybrid-electric boat.
Always Scouting
Our captain will keep an eye out for the whales. Sometimes it takes a little longer to spot an Humpbacks, Fin, Sperm whale and/or Orca's, but our guides have some nifty tricks to spot them. While we search for the whales, our passionate guides will share their personal stories from the Tromsø area and interesting sights that we can see from the fjords. Of course, a whale watching tour would not be complete without an abundance of information about the whales that live in the north.
Our Boat
Designed for whale watching, our boat has comfortable, warm lounges with panoramic windows, so that you will have a front-row seat to the whales from wherever you are. You’ll find a selection of food and drinks for purchase onboard. Note: Please bring warm cloths, including your wool and equivalent. We sail in the arctic waters, and its cold when you stand outside our heated saloons.
Herring migration determines whale watching season
Whales have come to Tromsø for years to feed. It is a crucial time for the whales as the whales intake much of their yearly required nutrition in the short 3-4 months of their stay. This builds a thick layer of fat, which is the whales 'winter fur'. They depend on this reserve of energy for much of the year. Their favourite snack is herring, due to its high-fat content. The location of the whales (and therefore the area where we go for whale watching), depends on where the herring schools are. The herring themselves migrate over Norway. To spawn in one location and eat in another, but not always do the herring go to the same fjord, and so the location of the whale's changes over the years.
It has a high-fat content, especially when it migrates to the Norwegian coast to spawn in winter and spring. Whales depend on eating up to a good fat reserve, and building a thick layer of fat under the skin, which is marine mammals' "winter fur". Therefore, this period is important for them to survive through an otherwise lean winter
