Sea Eagle Safari by boat at Sommarøy - Incl. Transfer from Tromsø

This tour includes a transfer by Arctic Route bus. Please meet up at the busstop 15 minutes before departure time.

Join the Arctic Route bus to Sommarøy for a scenic bus ride to Sommarøy, a popular destination for nature enthusiasts. The archipalgo of Sommarøy hoasts a large colony of sea eagles year round. And to see them soar over the lanscape looking for fish is a remarkable sight. On this guided tour we take you out in our well suited and heated boat and search the islands and cliffs for this majestic bird. With a wingspan ranging up over two meters, viewing this bird up close is a majestic and unforgettable sight.You may also encounter other wildlife such as sea otters, harbour porpoises, tysties and other sea birds. At the same time we will explore the wild exposed coast of Senja when weather permits and go ashore for a guided tour of the Hekkingen lightshouse. We will of open the lighthouse tower to give you a 360 degrees view of the surrounding area. After the cruise you will have a little time to explore the surroundings on your own, before heading back to Tromsø with the Arctic Route bus.
