Day 4: Hovercraft tour
Breakfast at the hotel. Embark for a unique activity! You will meet the guide, who will give you all the explanations you need. The outing depends on ice conditions. Here, the wind pushes the ice to form icebergs, which can sometimes form 10-metre-high walls. On the island of Brändöskär, you’ll make a stop and take a stroll to see the old chapel. A light lunch with hot drinks will be served.
