  • Get up close with nature in a RIB  

  • Discover scenic islands and secluded beaches that are accessible only by boat 

  • Keep your eyes peeled for the king of the sky – the magnificent Sea Eagle

Get ready to feel the thrill of the wind in your hair as we embark on a heart-pumping ride in the waters around Lofoten. After a safety briefing, you’ll head to the RIBs to begin your adventure around this archipelago, passing islets and skerries accessible only by boat.  

The area we’ll explore is home to Sea Eagles, and your chances of encountering these majestic creatures up close are high. With a wingspan of up to 2.65 metres, it is the largest bird of prey in Norway, and can carry up to double their own weight. As you scan the sky, be sure to soak up your surroundings – this vibrant landscape changes with the seasons, while a symphony of birdlife fills the air.  

As we navigate these stunning waters, your skipper will share their knowledge about the region, seasoning their explanations with local stories that offer an insightful peek into everyday life in Lofoten.
