Svalbard - Last stop before the North Pole on the Ocean Albatros

Embark on the ultimate Arctic adventure to circumnavigate Svalbard aboard the ice-class Ocean Albatros. This high Arctic voyage takes you to breathtaking locations, from the wildlife-rich northwest Spitzbergen to the shifting pack ice at 80 degrees north, home to polar bears in their summer habitat. Explore Edgeøya, Bellsund, and Hornsund in southern Svalbard, navigating fjords, glacier fronts, and remote beaches. Spot reindeer, Arctic foxes, and millions of seabirds. Using Zodiac boats, we will get up close to wildlife, make frequent landings, and explore Svalbard's breathtaking glacial landscapes. This extraordinary summer journey offers unparalleled access to the Arctic's natural wonders.
