Ylvingen
This tour is conducted by SeilNorge. In winter, the Arctic days are painted in soft pastels.
The sky glows like an endless sunrise and sunset, and from the deck of a sailboat you’re in the middle of it all — far from the noise, surrounded by sea, silence, and wild beauty. We set sail from Tromsø and leave the city behind. Out here, it’s calm, raw, and breathtaking — this is the Arctic seen from the sea.
Join us for a real winter adventure!
When you step on board, we start with a short safety briefing before letting the lines go and heading out around Tromsø island. This is a hands-on trip — you’re welcome to take part in the sailing: trim the sails, take the helm, or just lean back and enjoy. Want to try your fishing luck? Drop a line — maybe you’ll catch your own lunch.
Highlights:
- Sail in the heart of the Arctic — surrounded by dramatic mountains and open sea
- Experience the magical daylight of the polar season
- Get involved in sailing — or simply relax on deck
- Try your luck at Arctic fishing
- Small group, local crew, and an authentic atmosphere
