NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00

Report from Eldey: Clear skies with calm seas and winds and already active northern lights set the scene for tonight's tour as we sailed out. The moment we left the city lights behind us we could truly admire the spectacle that layed before us. The sky was filled with northern lights in many shapes. Veils and bands were glowing all around and some were even dancing! For the duration of the whole tour we got to admire a sky full of northern lights, an incredible spectacle we all felt so greatful for to behold. Time flew by and before we realised it was already time for us to head back, but not before an extra bright encore of northern lights started dancing above us un many colours!
