4 experiences you just can’t miss in the Arctic?Region!

The Arctic, the land of polar bears, whales and Northern Lights has fascinated people for centuries. But did you know The Arctic is an umbrella term for a number of diverse destinations near the northern pole? If you are confused where to head and why, here’s some of our favourite picks!

Spitsbergen for the wildlife

Spitsbergen is the largest island in Norway’s Svalbard archipelago, a chain of islands north of the Arctic circle. While there is a small permanent settlement at Longyearbyen, Svalbard is generally empty of human traces, so it is one of the best places in the Arctic to view an impressive variety of wildlife.

Iceland for spectacular landscapes

This island nation lies just shy of the Arctic circle, but its dramatic landscape exemplifies what many people picture when they hear “Arctic.” The island is volcanically and geologically active, which, combined with the country’s numerous glaciers, shape a landscape that is utterly unique and breathtakingly beautiful.

Greenland for Arctic culture

This large Arctic island--geographically part of North America but politically considered part of Europe under Danish power--provides some of the best opportunities for travellers to connect with the people who call the harsh Arctic landscape home.

Northwest Passage for Adventure

The Northwest Passage refers to the traditional sailing route connecting the Atlantic to the Pacific via the Arctic Ocean through the islands of Arctic Canada. This sailing from Greenland to Alaska offers incredible opportunities to view massive icebergs, visit high Arctic towns, observe wildlife, and watch for northern lights.
