Boat Trip from Bodø to Saltstraumen and Beiarfjorden

About the Activity

What to Expect

Come aboard and join us on an unforgettable adventure with our boat trip to one of the world's largest Maelstroms, the Saltstraumen as well as the peaceful and quiet Beiarfjorden. As we cruise through these breathtaking waters, our knowledgeable English-speaking guide will share fascinating insights about the remarkable phenomenon of Maelstroms. The journey then continues along the rugged coast of Sandhorn Island and through the narrow entrance of the Beiarfjord, revealing fascinating geological phenomena and a serene landscape with breathtaking views.

The highlight of our tour is the visit to the Saltstraumen, where you may have the chance to witness the tremendous forces at play. The small strait and the powerful currents generate large eddies, some reaching up to 10 meters in diameter and 4-5 meters in depth. While the exact strength of the current varies daily, the experience of being close to such natural power is awe-inspiring.

Our boat is equipped with all the necessary amenities to ensure your comfort throughout the trip. You can relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery from the deck, knowing you are in safe hands with our experienced crew. This tour offers a unique opportunity to witness one of nature's most powerful spectacles, making it an experience you will cherish forever.
