Imagine yourself standing on deck as a brilliant display of green and purple lights swoops and twirls over the pure Arctic skies above you… If you go on a cruise above the Arctic Circle in Northern Norway or Svalbard Island between late fall and early spring, you are more likely to see the northern lights, also called the aurora borealis.
From the Lofoten Islands to the North Cape, the coast of Northern Norway is covered by a belt of aurora borealis. This makes Northern Norway an ideal location to witness this occurrence. In fact, this is the best place on Earth to watch the Northern Lights. You can view the Northern Lights during the day in the middle of winter on Svalbard (Spitsbergen), which lies a little further from this belt.
Look up at the Northern Lights, the most beautiful light show on Earth, while you admire Norway’s beautiful fjords and winding waterways.
