Summer nature holidays - 7 -
Sassenfjord

Off-season beauty.

This is a voyage of discovery to experience the Arctic, either at its time of awakening at the beginning of the summer (holiday in June) or during its September sleepiness when you will become immersed in the mystery and melancholy of autumn. From coastal navigation in kayaks to short hikes, this trip focuses on amazing nature.

Two holidays – two different seasons

June :
Experience all the beauty of the start of summer, when the abundance of marine birds and their incessant comings and goings disturb the torpor of the peaceful ice floe, nestling at the bottom of the fjords. A world of blue and white, of snow and ice, this is a vision of the Polar world as you will have imagined it under permanent daylight. This is an ideal trip for those who are interested in Arctic fauna.

September :
Experience the soft autumn light, a subtle blend of red and white under a carpet of snow covering the mountain tops. This alternating daylight and clear darkness plunges the landscapes into an extraordinary romanticism. This is possibly Spitzbergen’s most fascinating season if you are willing to serenely accept the climactic condition, which can sometimes be harsher than in summer. If you like to experience strong emotions, this trip is a must.
