Discover the iconic sea eagle on this professional photography boat tour from Svolvær in the Lofoten Islands!

Svolvær is the largest town in the Lofoten Islands in Norway, located on the island of Austvågøya. Nestled between dramatic peaks and the Vestfjord, it offers a mix of stunning nature, rich fishing traditions, and outdoor adventures. On this sea eagle boat tour from Svolvær, you'll sail along deep fjords in Lofoten!

The expedition begins at the starting point in Svolvær, where you'll be welcomed on board the comfortable boat by the expert crew. After a quick safety and itinerary briefing, your boat trip in Lofoten begins! The boat will start sailing along the rugged coastline, passing a backdrop of dramatic mountains and raw Arctic wilderness. You'll sail to Raftsundet, a narrow strait located between the Lofoten Islands and Vesterålen that connects the Vestfjorden to the Hadselfjorden.

Raftsundet is home to the largest eagles in the region, with white-tailed eagles most commonly spotted circling above the fjords. The knowledgeable guides use fish and other tactics to attract these magnificent creatures for unique close-up views. The local crew is passionate about wildlife photography and storytelling, and they will help you capture dynamic sequences, from the elegant arc of a bird’s flight to the intense moments of a hunt. They will also share their expertise about any Arctic wildlife you encounter, such as orcas, humpbacks, and seabird colonies. At the end of the remarkable photography boat tour to Raftsundet, you'll return to the starting point in Svolvær.

This isn't just a typical boat tour in Lofoten - it is an incredible opportunity to capture professional photos and come face-to-face with Northern Europe’s most impressive raptors!
