❄️"Hard to depict that these few precious, exhilarating, breathless moments with these amazing animals also consisted of hours of freezing cold fingers in wet gloves, scanning the water for a hint of a dorsal fin and driving straight into snow squalls in hope." - Lauren Lennon - Winter Whales of Norway, Nov 2024

Today, Northern Norway has entered the Polar Night and we will not see the sun rise until mid-January. But this won't hold us back though, there's still enough light to go out and explore the fjords in search of whales and orcas 🖤🤍

This orca was in a very playful mood 😍 Spy-hopping, showing us its catch, swimming in circles and checking us out. It's such a privilege to watch their behaviour up close 🥰
Another memorable day in the fjords 🩵

Our guest @normens.welt was able to film a pod of orcas while they were carrousel feeding. Each individual orca has their own role as they work together closely to encircle the fish and create a bait ball. It's a privilege to witness this unique behaviour under water 🤍🖤

Northern Norway is one of the very few places in the world where you can safely swim with orcas. What makes these fjords so special?

🐟🤿🐳 One of the most incredible under water experiences is seeing a baitball. The Orcas in Norway work collectively to create bait balls by a unique type of hunting behaviour called carrousel feeding. They work together closely in order to encircle the fish and hurd them into a tight ball. Our Waterproof Expeditions guide and whale expert Elizabeth explains.

🤿🐳What's it like to go snorkeling in Northern Norway? Do I need to be very fit? How long will we be out on the water? Expedition guide Elizabeth explains:
"Being in the water, it's not overly strenuous. You do have to be a little bit fit, a little bit active, but it's not too difficult. We do become one team as a zodiac, so we help everybody in and out of the water. We have safety ladders. Sometimes you're in the water for a very long time, but it's not only physical strength but mental strength. When we have more daylight, we want to be on the water for as long as possible, so that could be up to 5-6 hours. Also being mentally prepared to be in the Arctic, in the Arctic elements, being prepared for that is almost equally as important as physical strength."
