Whale Watching Boat Trip from Skjervøy

About the Activity

What to Expect

Hop on this Whale Watching Boat Trip from Skjervøy! Your adventure begins as you board the Blasius II, a spacious 22-meter catamaran equipped with a large passenger capacity and a comfortable lounge. Here, you can warm up while enjoying the view of the majestic whales through the windows. As we leave Skjervøy behind, the anticipation builds as our experienced guides and crew ensure you have the best possible experience. Complimentary coffee, tea, and biscuits are served, adding a touch of warmth and comfort to your journey.

The highlight of this trip is the chance to witness the stunning migration of the Atlantic herring, which attracts a congregation of killer whales and humpback whales into the fjords.

Our guides provide insights into the behaviour and characteristics of these magnificent creatures, making each sighting a memorable encounter. This is not just a passive observation; it is an engaging experience that connects you to the wonders of marine life.

After approximately three hours of exploration, we head back to land, leaving you with a sense of awe and appreciation for the natural world.
