Itinerary

Day 1: Tromsø

Stop At: Tromso Fjords, Tromso, Troms, Northern Norway
People live here since the last ice age. Only fjords surrounding the city are older.
We will leave the plane in the polar circle, check into the yacht, and start our journey to the south through the fjords to Lofoten islands.
Before we begin our northern adventure, will do provision shopping and sightseeing around the northern capital.
Of course we all want to escape civilization and run into the norther wilds as soon as possible. Two hours to the south-west from Tromsø there is a small island with a wooden pier. Spending the night there will be much more calm — we will hear the silence of the north..
