Hosted by

Sanne

Guided trip
Exploring the Lofoten islands by sailboat is without any doubt a unique experience! The dramatic views, especially during twilight hours, are just amazing. Mountains rise up straight out of the ocean. Land and ocean are constantly taking over in the views. The Lofoten Islands are famous for the northern lights, the midnight sun, small towns and majestic views. The start and finish location of this expedition is Moskenes. Along our voyage we will go through some well known fjords, islands and cities. The route is made to be weatherproof, flexible and to adapt to all sorts of level of fitness while maintaining and guarantee a maximum usage of our time. Your stay & transportation: You will stay aboard our sailing vessel, a custom-built 53ft aluminium Koopmans, which will also be our form of transportation. The boat can sleep up to 9 people (divided over 2 cabins) and has a big central lounge. There is sufficient heating, a hot shower, a toilet, storage space and more, so it is built for comfort. In the day-to-day description, you can find more information and photos about the boat, so you will have a good impression of what is awaiting you. Who are we? My name is Sanne (26) and together with Luuk (28) & Olivier (28). We will be your crew on board and will be responsible for sailing you around. Together we have over 30.000 nautical miles of sailing experience and have safely managed any thinkable situation at sea. You do not need any sailing experience to join this trip, and we are happy to teach you about sailing if you want. Over the years, we've had many amazing people on board, and we would love to see you next!

The remote Horseidvika on the island of Moskenesøya may just be Lofoten's most beautiful beach - a true paradise for hikers and nature-lovers. So let's go on a hike together, should we? You will definitely fall in love with Horseidvika!

Værøy

Day 6-7
Værøy has everything typical of Lofoten. White sandy beaches, a rich bird life and a rich fishing history, all while still being a living fishing village. Naturally, the largest industry on the island is fishing and due to the climate it is perfect for stockfish production. The stockfish trade with foreign countries has led to Venice becoming Værøy’s friendship municipality.

Moskenes

Day 7
After breakfast, it’s time to hug it out with everybody and commemorate all the great memories made, and the adventures lived during the tour. We will give you a ride to the ferry terminal and wave goodbye.
