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: Many of us boarded the boat this evening in search for the magical lights in the sky. It was calm and quiet out on the water, and while we learned about the origin of the northern lights, we kept scanning the skies. A few gaps in the clouds gave us hope, as the forecast was quite good. Unfortunately, the clouds kept us from witnessing the aurora. With aurora hunting there is lots of persistence and patients involved, so everybody got a complementary tickets, to try their luck on another day.
