Sail with Sami Experience on an unforgettable adventure, explore the fantastic Altafjord and the surrounding areas onboard a Catamaran.Here you will have the chance to experience majestic whales, sea eagles and a diverse bird life in their natural habitat.

The Altafjord attracts a number of whale species, such as killer whales, humpback whales and fin whales. These majestic animals are often seen hunting and playing in the water, an amazing experience to explore. 

The sky is also home to the white-tailed eagle, a striking bird of prey known for its powerful flight and keen eyesight, often soaring high as it hunts its prey. So here you can experience spectacular experiences both in the water and in the sky. 

The boat is a catamaran that lies firmly in the fjord, and gives you a very comfortable experience.

As the boat glides through the calm fjord waters, you will be greeted with magnificent views of Norway's pristine coastal landscape and capture amazing animal moments in the beautiful landscape and fjord where whales and seabirds thrive.

There is comfortable seating both inside and outside. Through the large windows you get a good view, and outdoors there is plenty of space and several seats both up on the flybridge and at the front of the deck. Here you can enjoy the magnificent view and experience the fjord, the landscape and the wildlife up close.

You can also join in hoisting sails and participate in the sailing if you wish.
