Silent Whale Watching

Brim Explorer

This tour is operated by Brim Explorer. Get a unique perspective on the magnificent Humpback Whales and Orcas as they feed in the herring-rich fjords of the Arctic. Our silent hybrid-electric ship allows us to minimise disturbance to nature and whales.
Highlights:
• The majestic Humpbacks and Orcas
• Chance of spotting porpoise
• Spectacular landscape including the Lyngen Alps
• Arctic winter light

We depart Tromsø at 08:00 in the morning and head out to the whales’ feeding grounds in time to enjoy the few hours of polar daylight. On the way you can take in the breathtaking views of frozen landscapes in comfortable, warm lounges with panoramic windows. You’ll find a selection of food and drinks for purchase on board.

While we search for the whales, our passionate guides will share personal stories about interesting sights along the way and give you in-depth information about the Orcas and Humpback Whales.

Once the whales have been spotted, we switch to our electric and silent engine to minimise disturbance to the whales. Our hybrid electric ship is purpose built for whale watching, our ship has multiple decks, giving you space and a great views.
