NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 22:00

Report from Eldey: We didn't have to wait long for the northern lights during tonight's cruise: we had only just sailed out of the harbour when a green light appeared to the right of mount Esja. We didn't expect to see the auroras that early as it was still not completely dark, but they were so strong that the green moving lights were clearly visible, particularly when they started expanding into the sky and shifting their shapes. The activity decreased after a while but towards the end of the tour some faint green bands reappeared above us before we headed into the harbour.
