One of the biggest gathering of orcas and whales in the world
Every winter, Northern Norway transforms into a breathtaking wildlife spectacle! Thousands of herring attract one of the largest gatherings of orcas in the world, and you can witness 50 to 60 of these majestic predators swimming together in their natural habitat. But the adventure doesn’t stop there—we also sight humpback whales, fin whales, and even mighty sperm whales. More than a destination; it’s a front-row seat to one of nature’s most spectacular shows!

Every year in November
Weather permitting, and based on your preferences, we may spend a few nights onboard, following the orcas and whales to the very spots where they feed. Their exact location in the fjord can never be guaranteed, but that’s part of the thrill—and we’ll do everything we can to bring you right into the heart of the action!
From our fjord-front house, where adventure meets comfort
The week is centered at our cozy house in Reinfjord, right on the fjord, with a sailboat at your doorstep and a private sauna to unwind after days on the fjord. Each day, we head out to sea to observe the orcas and whales in their natural habitat. Getting here is easy: fly into Tromsø, take two local speedboats (with a connection in Skjervøy), and you’re here!

Open to all, guided by our expert crew
We welcome small groups of 2 to 5 guests, with the option to privatize the week exclusively for your group. Our highly experienced crew is led by Delphine, a skipper and former officer in the merchant navy, who has been guiding whale-watching and snorkeling tours in these waters for the last 10 years.

Swim with orcas and whales – for experienced divers and professional underwater photographers
Thanks to our sailboat, we have the flexibility to tailor the trip to the best possible spots. The journey can be a liveaboard adventure, with the comfort of our cozy house always nearby. We can spend the night where the action is - where the orcas and whales are feeding on the herring - so you don’t miss a single moment of daylight. And whenever you like, you can return to shore for a shower and to rinse your gear.
We only offer the snorkeling option to professional and experienced swimmers traveling with their own equipment, ensuring safety while maximizing the thrill of those once-in-a-lifetime encounters.
Ethical encounters
Every encounter with whales and orcas is guided by strict ethical and local whale-watching guidelines. We keep a respectful distance to travelling and feeding pods, letting you witness these majestic creatures in their natural world without disturbing them. We only get in the water when they are static.
Just bring warm clothes and good mood! Sit back, relax, and get ready for an unforgettable experience - we take care of everything!
