Few natural phenomena are as mesmerising as the aurora borealis. These shifting curtains of colour sweep across the polar skies, painting them in hues of green, pink, and violet. While their appearance may seem unpredictable, scientists have developed ways to understand when and where they might occur and by studying the activity levels, we can estimate the likelihood of seeing them.

NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00

Report from Eldey: Tonight, we sailed out under partly cloudy skies, excited to find out what spectacle the evening might bring. As soon as we left the harbour, some green light had already started to appear in the sky! We were all out on deck, warm and cosy in our overalls, marvelling at what we saw. The lights started out faint, but gradually grew stronger, allowing us to see the green colour with the naked eye. As the night went on, we learnt more about the phenomenon of the aurora and heard some fascinating stories about what people imagined they were before we understood the science behind them. The lights showed up again at the end of our tour, a little more faint, but accompanied by the beautiful starry skies. What a wonderful evening out at sea!
