This is the real thing! The winter fjord fishing adventure will give you the opportunity to join a genuine fjord fisherman in his fishing boat on an arctic fjord. You will see different kinds of fish species, and learn how they are caught and preserved for delivery. The fjord is surrounded by thousand meter high mountains, the Lyngen Alps, falling vertically in to the deep arctic water that holds these great fish resources. The spectacular surroundings also give you a chance to spot sea eagles or other arctic ocean birds. Do not forget to bring your camera!  The boat is a modern speed fishing boat equipped with toilet, inside dining space and a large life raft for you safety. You will also be comfortable outside on deck, wearing insulated regatta suites. Out on the fjord you will be served a hot meal.

We pick you up on our bus or minibus in the town centre of Tromsø, by the hotel Rica. The town centre is very compact, so you will easily find the pick up point. We then transport you a 90 minute drive to the harbour in Storfjord (in English the name is “Grand fjord”). From the harbour the fjord winter fishing will last approximately 4 hours.

Planning tip: You can after the fjord excursion also choose to transfer directly to our wilderness camp a short drive from the fjord harbour, Camp Tamok. There you can participate in one of our evening winter advenutures, such as dog sledding, snowmobile safari, reindeer sledding, snowshoeing or Northern lights trip. You maybe even choose to spend the night in the camp. Check out our day/evening trips and book the program that fits your demands perfectly.

Did you know that April is the most common winter month for outdoors activities in northern Norway? April is the time when the locals do most of their outdoor winter activities. During April the daylight above the arctic circle is rapidly extending until there is 24 hours of light (no night darkness). The higher Sun and lighted nights gives milder winter temperatures. At the same time the snow depth is often at its maximum in April, the peak of the winter. This combination gives the best conditions for many kinds of winter excursions. We of course provide winter adventures in April (except northern lights sightings). Try out winter adventures with extreme daylight and comfortable temperatures. It is a very charming experience.

Did you know that in our area you can not see the Sun from middle of November until the end of January? In the middle of this period, the Sun is below the horizon 24 hours, even at its peak. The dark period is a phenomenon found only north of the northern arctic circle, and south of the southern arctic circle. This does not mean that it is complete darkness. The short day holds a misty daylight, not unlike what one might experience just before sunrise or after sunset (twilight). This misty light in combination with the dramatic white landscape provides a magical atmosphere. The areas with dark time during the winter have a similar period of midnight Sun in the summer, when the Sun stays above the horizon 24 hours.
