    We sailed out this evening but soon realised the sky was a big sheet of clouds. Unfortunately sometimes the the weather does what it wants and tonight was one of those evenings, so we handed out complimentary tickets in the end.

    The sea was smooth, although we had a bit of wind and some clouds in the sky. We spotted the first northern lights, very slightly from our cameras. We waited to see if they could get stronger, but they soon faded away, prompting us to hand out complimentary tickets!

    We sailed out and were met with thick clouds that unfortunately stayed with us the whole time. Sadly, we were not able to see any Aurora Borealis tonight, so we passed by the Imagine Peace Tower before handing out complimentary tickets to give everyone a second chance!

    We could see a few stars in the sky in between the clouds. We waited for the lights to come out as we enjoyed warm drinks in the cold wind. Unfortunately, we were not lucky, so we decided to give out complimentary tickets to all passengers!

    We stayed hopeful as we were expecting low clouds and while we spotted a star at one point, the clouds stayed with us during the tour. As we didn't have any luck with the lights tonight we handed out complimentary tickets so that everyone gets a chance to return for free. On the way be stopped at the IPT as it glowed and brightened up the now foggy night.

    It was a beautiful night full of stars. The Big Dipper, Cassiopea, Orion's belt, Jupiter and Saturn were all visible. The northern lights were present from the beginning of the tour until the end, oscillating between very diffused and clearly visible, from a foggy and light cloud around the mountains to a green arch coming from behind Esja.

    We sailed out in the direction of Esjan but sadly with us came a lot of rain. This was not part of the forecast so we stayed hopeful and patient. The rain stopped after a little bit and in the end we even got a little hail! We stopped at the Imagine Peace Tower and let that light up the sky for a bit and then handed out complimentary tickets due to not seeing the auroras.

    There were a few clouds as we sailed out, but about halfway through the tour very faint lights started poking through. These lights would then fade and grow throughout the night, but still, we decided to offer our passengers complimentary tickets for a better chance to see them!

    The night was beautiful with bright stars and not so much clouds. We waited maybe an hour before seeing the northern lights starting. First they were very faded and barely visible with the naked eye. We patiently observed and finally saw them becoming much brighter and extending towards the sky.

    It was very windy but with cozy overalls we pulled through the coming storm. Unfortunately the luck wasn't on our side and we didn't see any northern lights dancing. We passed by the Imagine Peace Tower on our way back and then gave out complimentary tickets so our passengers can come back once more.

    Unfortunately the high clouds were quite thick and the activity very low. We patiently waited in the bay listening to music and drinking hot drinks but no lights appeared. We gave complimentary tickets to our passengers hoping that next time we will be luckier!

    We sailed out with a high hopes due to the very good forecast. As we left the harbour it was a fairly clear sky, we could see stars as well as Jupiter. Unfortunately, we ended up with a sky full of thick clouds and the lights didn't appear. So we offered everyone complimentary tickets. Hopefully the lights reappear tomorrow!

    A quiet night, without any wind on our faces so we headed out into the darkness in search of the auroras. The sky looked cloudy but with enough gaps to try to see the lights. Unfortunately no activity was reported so we sailed back to the harbour. Complimentary tickets were offered to our passengers for another try.

    Tonight the sky was absolutely beautiful with no moon and so many stars. The milky way was even visible above our heads. The northern lights could be seen the whole evening, a beautiful arch was in the north west. This arch was sometimes single, double or triple! Simply amazing.
