Race across Altafjord's pristine waters in a powerful RIB boat toward Seiland Island – a hidden Arctic paradise where Scandinavia's northernmost glaciers crown dramatic peaks that plunge straight into the sea. Feel the spray on your face during the scenic hour-long voyage past towering coastal mountains that shelter Europe's most remote wilderness. Step ashore in breathtaking Bekkarfjord, where ultrabasic bedrock creates surprisingly lush meadows bursting with Arctic wildflowers. Above you, ancient glaciers glimmer like jewels while sea eagles soar on thermals rising from sun-warmed cliffs. This unique geology supports incredibly rich plant life rarely seen at such northern latitudes. Keep your eyes peeled for curious seals surfacing near the boat and magnificent birds of prey hunting along precipitous coastlines. Seiland offers something truly special – untouched nature where glacial ice meets flowering meadows, creating one of Western Finnmark's most spectacular island landscapes. Return across the fjord with memories of discovering one of Norway's best-kept natural secrets, accessible only by sea.

We spent some days there in January to watch aurora borealis (aka northern lights). The lodge is really a good place, far out in the country side, not much light pollution. The team is so helpful and they really take care to make it a good stay, very personal and considering. Like visiting friends y...
