When the herring arrives in the north of Norway, the killer whales and other whales will be there too. We will also follow the herring to observe these mammals. In the end of November we sail out to search the whales. Temperatures are low, the sea can be rough and windy, the views are magnificent and the days are short. If you like a challenging expedition, we recommend this one. And northern lights maybe visible in the evenings....!
