Whale under the midnight sun© Whale2SeaMidnight trip with whale and bird watching
Now you can combine whale- and birdwatching with a visit to one of Northern Norways most important bird cliffs, Bleiksøya.
Whales and sea puffins
The most common whale species off Andenes are male sperm whales. Up to 20 meters long and 60 tons heavy they are the largest toothed whales of the planet. The whales are often seen outside of Bleik.
Here is also one of Northern Norways most important bird cliffs, Bleiksøya, located. There you will see thousands of puffins, white-tailed eagles and other species at midnight.
Have your camera ready to capture this spectacle of nature.
