Closer to nature
There’s an incredible variety of wildlife in the Arctic. Seeing your first polar bear, wolf, Arctic fox, or reindeer in the wild is an unforgettable thrill. Plus, there are plenty of wonderful birds to spot, such as puffins, black-legged kittiwakes, purple sandpipers, and many more. There’s extraordinary marine life to watch out for too, including seals, sea lions and walruses. Several species of whale can be found in the Arctic, including bowhead, beluga and narwhals. Seeing one of these majestic creatures breaching the icy waters is a special experience that will stay with you forever.
