Description
The most beautiful places in the Lofoten Islands. Trollfjorden – accessible only by sea. Mountains with breathtaking views. Magic in every corner. Fishing. Chance to spot orcas. And on top of that all… delicious cuisine!
Ask a random Norwegian about the most beautiful place in their country on the mainland and without hesitation they’ll say it’s the Lofoten Islands.
This incredible 112 km-long archipelago is located in the northwestern part of Norway, in the Norwegian Sea. It’s a place where narrow fjords cut deep into sharp, jagged, towering mountain formations, creating spectacular views. The rocks, formed 3 billion years ago, are stunning in their grandeur. The rorbuer – colorful wooden houses perched on rocks or stilts driven into the sea floor – contrast beautifully with the calm grays, greens, and whites of the surroundings. However, they look nothing like the ancient Viking settlements that once existed here.
Our journey combines sailing and trekking. Thanks to the yacht, we can reach all destinations – even those inaccessible by land. We admire them from the beautiful sea perspective, fish in the open waters, and spot eagles and other wildlife. Once we reach the ports, we head ashore to explore and hike to the most fascinating spots. And there’s a lot to see in the Lofoten Islands.
From September to March, the skies are often lit up with stunning displays of the Northern Lights – another thing the Lofoten Islands are famous for, adding even more to the magic of this archipelago.
Lofoten is also a land of flavors and aromas. Fish, especially cod, reigns supreme here. Whether dried or fresh – especially if caught by us – it’s a must-try. It won’t taste this good anywhere else. We’re ready – we have fishing rods and we’re not afraid to use them!
During our voyage, we’ll be joined by guest chef Magda Klimczak – an experienced chef and traveler who sails with us through the waters of the North. Each day, alongside the galley watch, Magda will prepare a gourmet lunch inspired by Norwegian cuisine, its traditions and local ingredients. The menu includes creamy Norwegian fish soup, gravlax, cod ceviche, and fish casserole! Expect delicious food, surprising flavors, and lots of laughter!
