Orca and humpback whales following overwintering herring into the fjords, hunted in Arctic twilight with snow-covered mountains…Orca and humpback whales following overwintering herring into the fjords, hunted in Arctic twilight with snow-covered mountains on both sides. Snorkelling in a drysuit in 4°C water while orca pods carousel-feed, and the aurora sometimes firing above the same water. The herring changed their wintering grounds in the early 2010s and the whales followed, creating this fishery-driven spectacle almost overnight. Norway restricts in-water time and boat approaches; regulations tighten regularly, so verify the current rules. Anchorage: Deep, sheltered fjord anchorages; Skjervøy harbour. Hazards: No site-specific hazards noted, brief normally. Meer
