NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00

Report from Eldey: Onto the darkness we went to try to find the amazing green lady. The sky was full of stars, to a point that if you stayed 15 minuted without looking at a screen, you'd see the milky way! This way we could see all the contelations and a few shooting stars. Above Esja, we could see through our camera a bit of a glow which never became strong enough to be able to see it with our eyes. Because the night was so calm and nice, we extended the tour for a few more minutes to have a better chance but unfortunately the aurora never came. We handed out complimentary tickets in the end.
