Enjoy a short sightseeing tour of Tromsø before heading out across the Sandnessund Bridge to Kvaløy Island, with its beautiful scenery and several cultural monuments. Continuing on you’ll reach the large fishing village of Sommarøy Island, which is surrounded by white beaches and rugged snow-topped mountains.
Enjoy a walk to the beach and to the bridge of this vibrant coastal community, where fishing and hunting has always been the livelihood. See the fishing boats in the pretty harbour and take in the stunning views, with the big Senja Island to the south, the coastal landscapes to the north and the endless ocean to the west. During your visit learn about life on the island.
Your return trip to Tromsø along the narrow Kattfjord will be scenic, passing the majestic Blåmann, the highest peak on Kvaløy Island.
