Northern Lights Diary

• NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00

As soon as we left the harbour we could already see the northern lights. There was a huge green arch in the sky. These lights changed in shape and brightness throughout the night but they never left our side. As forecasted, there were no clouds so this also gave us a great view of the stars and moon. On our way back we also had a look at the Imagine Peace Tower.

We sailed out under a night with a few clouds but still stars visible. Barely a few minutes in the sail a few green northern lights appeared as an arch on the right side of the boat. They got stronger in color through the clouds and finally we saw a a stronger coloured green arch that spread to a good portion of the sky.

Before out tour even started we could see the partial lunar eclipse which was so cool. A bright moon is usually not a good combination to watch the auroras, but this time the northern lights were strong enough to pierce through the moonlight. We took awesome pictures of the lights dancing, the moon and the Imagine Peace Tower together.

As we got out we could see many stars in the night sky and also had a great view of the Imagine Peace Tower as we waited patiently in hope some northern lights would appear. Unfortunately, this was not the case, so we gave out complimentary tickets so our passengers can come back again another night!

• NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00

We headed out and hoped for the best. The clouds that were not supposed to be present tonight were blocking our view and although we started seeing some gaps later on, we still saw no northern lights. Unfortunately tonight was not the night, so we offered our passengers complimentary tickets as we headed back to shore!

With clear skies, we were optimistic for tonight's probability. Not long after we left the harbour, we detected an arch starting to form through our cameras. As we sailed further into the darkness, the northern lights became brighter and greener, and before we knew it a second arch had formed underneath it!

There was a slight cloud coverage tonight but we could still see the stars as we started our sail out in the bay. We headed toward mount Esja and close to the islands hoping for some activity, but the sky got more cloudy during the tour and unfortunately no northern light were seen. We therefore offered our passengers complimentary tickets!

This evening was windless and full of stars, making us hopeful that we would get lucky. We sailed out of the harbour, having a look at the beam of the Imagine Peace Tower on Viðey island. Even though the conditions were perfect tonight, the activity never picked up, so we offered our passengers complimentary tickets.

It was a silent night, we could see some stars but soon the clouds came and covered the sky. Unfortunately we weren't able to see the fantastic northern lights, so we handed out complimentary tickets to our passengers to have another opportunity to view them in the future.

There were gaps predicted in the clouds however we were not lucky enough for them to form. We enjoyed the music and hot chocolates but sadly were not successful in seeing the aurora borealis. Therefore we gave out complimentary tickets so that everyone is able to have another chance to try again.

As we sailed out we noticed the clouds were quite thin and we could see the stars which is a promising sign. As nature is always unpredictable, we unfortunately weren't successful in seeing the aurora tonight so in the ended we handed out complimentary tickets.

There were gaps in the clouds tonight and we could see stars and a very faint arch above Esja. Sadly it stayed very faint and was a bit tricky to see at times so we decided to hand out complimentary tickets, to give everyone on board a chance to view the auroras another night.
