NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00

Report from Eldey: Although it was overcast when we sailed out on our northern lights cruise, the weather forecast predicted that the clouds would clear up as the night progressed. With a kp of 2.67, we were hopeful to see the green lights of the aurora once the sky would be clearer. Before that happened, we had to endure snow, fog, strong winds and swell, but our patience was rewarded by a short show of northern lights. The aurora were initially covered by clouds, but during a few minutes we were able to witness green lights moving above mount Esja. Although we were happy to have seen the phenomenon, the crew wanted to give everyone the chance to come on another tour to hopefully see a longer display of northern lights. We therefore gave everyone a complimentary ticket.
