Join this once-in-a-lifetime Arctic Ocean floating experience in Tromsø’s cold waters with small-group tours and certified guides—no swimming skills required as premium neoprene suits keep you safe and effortlessly floating—immersing in stunning fjord landscapes with evening tours (October-March) offering Northern Lights views, receiving a completion diploma, free photos and videos, hot tea, coffee, freshly made Norwegian waffles, and towel (bring dry clothes recommended).
Slip into a thick neoprene survival suit that turns you buoyant and insulated, then ease backward into the icy fjord waters outside Tromsø where the cold barely touches skin. Float weightless under steep snow-covered mountains, head back gazing at reflections or—on evening tours from October to March—the Northern Lights flickering overhead.
Your certified guide stays close in the small group of eight, sharing tips on relaxing in the chill and pointing out how the suits work with body heat. No swimming skills needed—just lie back and let the Arctic hold you. After 45 minutes drifting, climb out for hot tea, coffee, and fresh Norwegian waffles while warming by the fire.
This 3.5-hour intimate adventure includes transport from central Tromsø, towel, all photos/videos, and a diploma for your polar float.
Real talk: water sneaks in sometimes—bring dry clothes to change into.
Max eight keeps it personal, book early for aurora season.
Here's practical advice to help your float go well, based on common experiences with cold, suits, and conditions. We've pulled this from what past guests told us after their trips.
Common issues. Not for back/heart/mobility issues, under 35 kg/over 135 kg, or over 70. Guests found suits forgiving but tight—honest sizing matters. Weather runs the tour; calm fjord keeps it gentle.
No skills required. Survival suit makes you float effortlessly—guides supervise closely. Past non-swimmers relaxed fully after initial dip.
Near freezing, but suit insulates core—face/hands feel the chill most. Guests said shock lasts minutes, then peaceful.
Possible October-March evenings, especially clear nights. One group floated under dancing lights—magic when it happens, but no guarantee.
Basic on-site with towel provided. Guests recommended full dry clothes—suits can leak a bit during active floating.
Check weight/age limits—generally older children who fit suits. Families said teens loved the float and waffles.
Small group (8 max), proper survival suits, and fjord setting with snacks/diploma. Past guests said the effortless buoyancy and quiet immersion beat standard boat views.
