Itinerary

Day 1: Svolvær and Skrova
Welcome to Svolvær! The fishing & transportation hub of the Lofoten islands. Check-in to the yacht at 12:00 pm. Your first excursion is to the
island of Skrova, a Norwegian fishing village with beautiful hikes and white sand beaches. Get the feeling of the region you are now in and
enjoy an easy guided walk to a beach. Look for sea shells, take in the spectacular ocean and mountain views, and breathe in the fresh clean air.

Day 2: Litlmolla
Island hop over to Skrova’s neighboring island Litilmolla where you can explore by kayak or SUP, walk around the beach on your own, relax in
the hot tub, and unwind at a sunset beach bonfire. Avoid the popular crowded beaches and spend a day on a remote island only accessible
by boat. Immerse yourself in the beauty of timeless Norweigan nature, explore remote sandy beaches and see the scenery of the Lofoten Islands
from both land and sea.

Day 3: Trollfjord
Cruise through the fjords to the world famous Trollfjord. The fjords of Lofoten are uniquely magnificent and are unlike any other fjords in the world - steep sided mountains with narrow cruising areas with eagles, waterfalls and the most spectacular views. Take the polar plunge and jump off the yacht in the fjord and warm up in the hot tub. Experience the stunning scenery of the fjords from the hot tub

Day 4: Hadselfjorden
Go deep sea fishing in Hadselfjorden, on the Northern side of the Lofoten Islands for cod, pollock and haddock. Eat your fresh catch for dinner onboard. Watch for whales, dolphins, eagles and puffins as you sail through the Laukvik Islands nature reserve. Go for an evening walk and
enjoy the views of the midnight sun and sunset skies.

Day 5: Henningsvær
Sail through Gimsøystraumen, an 18km long narrow strait between two Lofoten islands with strong tidal currents. Explore the charming town of Henningsvær, a historical fishing village with art galleries, cafes, boutiques, a seaside sauna, a photogenic soccer field and some of Northern Europe’s oldest rocks in the world - 2.7 billion years old! Day 6: Vestfjorden and Svolvær If there is wind to sail, the morning will be spent sailing in Vestfjorden. Take part in sailing or just enjoy the peaceful silence of sailing with the wind as you watch for wildlife and marvel at the local scenery as you return to Svolvær where your sailing trip in Lofoten comes to an end. Tour ends at 15:00 (3pm)
