We will explore the bay in front of Svea glacier and paddle between ice bergs. Our guide will safely lead you through the bay. Take a moment to rest and relax. Enjoy the close view of the glacier front and the stunning nature surrounding you. No other activity gets you as close to this majestic natural appearance.
The environment around Svea glacier is diverse and beautiful. Delicate flora struggles against the wind on the peninsula next to the glacier. Birds are all around, chirping and feeding. Sometimes, with a bit of luck, we can spot mammals resting on the ice sheets. Further, if we are lucky, we get to see the glacier calving – forming new ice bergs for us to explore.
After a few hours of paddling through the bay, we head back to our boat. Here, our captain has prepared a hearty, warm lunch for us that we can enjoy on our way back to Longyearbyen.
“What an incredible day out on the water. If you can only do one tour in Svalbard this is the one I would choose for sure.” – Gryan023on TripAdvisor
“For someone who was kayaking for the first time(and non swimmer) , this whole process was so smooth and it gave me so much confidence.” – bhatakna on TripAdvisor
