Day
1 : Longyearbyen (Svalbard), Norway
Longyearbyen
is in a valley on the shores of the idyllic Adventfjord, surrounded by
steep mountains and several glaciers. There are only around 25 miles of
roads in this village, which is divided into several neighborhoods,
including the town center and Nybyen (New Town), which consists of
charming miners’ barracks constructed after the war, as well
as guest houses, a restaurant and gallery, and not to mention beautiful
views of the landmark mountain, Hiorthfjellet. Be sure to visit the
Svalbard museum as a break between the plethora of activities like
summer dogsledding or cruising to the abandoned Russian city of
Pyramiden
Day
2 : Ny-Ålesund (Svalbard), Norway
Ny-Ålesund
is the northernmost settlement on Svalbard with a population of about
12 people. Here you can find an international scientific research
station. Close to the village is a breeding ground for rare geese and
arctic terns. Not far from here you may cruise your way toward the
Ossian Sars Nature Reserve, a preservation of mountains and surrounding
vegetation that is a sight to behold.
Day
3-6 : Exploring Svalbard - Captain’s Choice
Even
in one of the most isolated regions of the Arctic, there is still the
captivating history of a pioneering past. Our expedition leaders, along
with the captain and onboard pilot, will determine possible landings
each day for all-out explorations. Wildlife abounds throughout the
archipelago of Svalbard, such as puffins, reindeer, Arctic terns and
foxes. An expert photographer will help you look out for the perfect
photo opportunity of these animals, but especially for the elusive
polar bear. As Zodiac cruises may bring you closer to glaciers, keep
your eyes on the water for whale fins.
CAPTAIN’S
CHOICE - Your
Captain will expertly navigate ice floes, icebergs and changing sea and
weather conditions to ensure you experience the most from your
expedition. Each day is a new adventure filled with a spontaneous sense
of exploration as your Captain works with our expedition team to
determine possible shore landings and Zodiac safaris. All itinerary
routes serve as examples and are subject to change based on current
conditions, prioritizing the safety and optimal expedition experience
for all guests.
Day
7 : Crossing N80° Moffen - Captain’s Choice
Follow
in the wake of great explorers like Francis Drake, Captain James Cook
and Henry Hudson who attempted to cross the 80th parallel in search of
a passageway that connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The
N80° is the circle of latitude that is 80 degrees north of the
Earth’s equatorial plane, in the Arctic, intersecting the
Atlantic Ocean, Europe, Asia, the Arctic Ocean and North America. Just
north of 80° after the point of the crossing you will come to
Moffen, a small, low island north of the mouth of Wijdefjorden, on the
northern coast of Spitsbergen, the largest island of the Svalbard
archipelago.
