About This Tour
From mid-October to late January, orcas, humpbacks, and fin whales gather in the outer Altafjord — and Seiland House puts you right in the middle of it. With Arctic dolphins, sea eagles, and diverse birdlife, the area is a haven for nature lovers and photographers. On peaceful Seiland — mostly protected as a national park — our retreat offers untouched wilderness, few residents, and ideal Northern Lights viewing far from city lights. This 5-day tour runs Sunday to Thursday, with 4 nights at Seiland House and 3 full activity with a glimpse into the local life. Stay in cozy apartments and enjoy traditional meals in our Boat House restaurant or a drink in the Caribbean Bar. Embarque in a warm whale-watching boat, with wildlife often visible from shore, relax in the outdoor sauna or hot tub and head out to chase the Aurora. Our flexible itinerary adapts to weather and wildlife for the best Arctic experience. Escape to Seiland — where whales roam, the aurora dances, and tranquility awaits.
