From Henningsvær, you ride a fast RIB with a local English or Norwegian-speaking skipper to search for sea eagles, grey seals, and possible whales. You will receive a floating suit and life vest, but bring warm layers, a hat, and gloves. The wildlife is never guaranteed, yet the setting around Vågakallen is superb.

“Mycket fin runda och vi fick se såväl havsörn som valar. Trevlig och kunnig skeppare. Dock kom vi iväg efter utsatt tid då de missade två passagerare på grund av otydlighet vid samlingen, samt att vår förväntan var att turen skulle ta 2 timmar men vi var redan tillbaka efter 1 timme och 20 minuters båtfärd.”
