NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00
Report from Eldey: This evening, we had only just left the harbour when we saw the beginnings of our northern lights display. At first it was faint but we could all see the green. A long arc stretched across the sky for the whole night but as we watched from the sea, multiple more arcs appeared and danced in the sky. There was green and even red! The skies were very clear for us and our passengers so we could see plenty of stars in the sky as well tonight. Just before we had to turn around, the auroras picked up in intensity and we were surrounded! After watching the wonderful auroras throughout the tour, we unfortunately had to start our journey back to the harbour with warm hot chocolates in our hands.

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.
