Our last day of the voyage began with a beautiful landing in Signehamna, Krossfjorden. Those up for a longer adventure set out on a two-hour hike across the undulating hills surrounding the bay, while others enjoyed shorter, yet equally rewarding walks. A couple of curious Svalbard reindeer grazed on the freshly uncovered tundra vegetation as gray clouds settled gently into the valley. Meanwhile, snow buntings, kittiwakes, and Arctic terns treated us to a lively concert. It was truly a magical day in the high Arctic.
In the afternoon, we repositioned the ship in front of the stunning Lilliehöök Glacier for a scenic ship cruise, where we admired the mesmerizing blue ice reflected in the still waters.
To top it all off, we ended the day with a Polar Plunge! The brave among us took the plunge to test just how cold those Arctic waters really are.
What a perfect way to conclude our unforgettable two-week voyage along the Norwegian coast and through the wild beauty of Arctic Svalbard.
