NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE / 21:00
Report from Eldey: We went out with a fresh icelandic breeze but quite calm seas. The forecast promised nice gaps in the clouds and a good KP-index. We had to have a little patience with the "Green Lady", but after a while she showed up. Unfortunately the northern lights weren't very strong, so we could only see a small patch for a few minutes with our eyes and afterwards only a little with the help of our phones and cameras. We sailed to the gaps in the clouds in the hope of seeing more, but the gods were not with us tonight. So we decided to give out complimentary tickets for our guests, so they could come again for free and try to see them. :)

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.
