Occasionally, we may add an extra video, here and there, if during our daily venturing into the sea, there will be some additional extraordinary encounters.

No, the videos are recorded daily, then freshly cut, and professionally edited to bring you the best highlights. It will cover the happenings and encounters of the past week. We decided to do it this way because on some days, the orcas may not be in the mood to interact or even show up at all. We don’t follow the orcas to forcefully try to make content. We feature their lives as they unfold.

The highlights are around 1 minute long.

The episodes are between 20-30 minutes long

What a treat you’re in for!!! We envy you, because you’ll get to experience the magic of the first cetacean encounter with us!!! How exciting, and yes. Yes, of course. We will narrate the videos, thus explaining all the things you see happening. What is a spy hop and why Orcas do them. What is an Orca pod and so many more. You will learn about animal`s behavior and understand what it is that you actually see.

Oh, Absolutely! If you’ve been whale watching before it means you love whales! And thus – this is the best place for you! We will show and share with you the best of our encounters and you will get to witness some amazing videos with these magnificent animals up close. You’ll learn and love them even more!

You will get to be an observer of the daily life of these magnificent animals – Orcas and humpback whales in their winter playground.

Some of the most beautiful moments happen in the smallest of details, and by joining us for the whole seasons, you’ll get to see what a traditional TV documentary won’t show you.

Some days, you’ll get overjoyed with their feeding frenzy. In others, you’ll get excited following them riding the waves. There will be days when their curiosity will make them approach and interact with us. And on other days, where you can experience the calmness and a meditation like state in their relaxed and less eventful days. There isn’t a day similar to another as there is something different everyday with these cheeky spy hoppers. So, come along.

Coming to see the whales and orcas, in person, is a unique experience. And we encourage you to do so as soon as travel resumes to normal. We are happy to welcome you onboard when you’re here!! And even more – you’ll look with different eyes and understanding at the whole experience, having had learned about their behavior from all of our narrations throughout the seasons. This will enhance your visit tenfold. However, we will spill a few secrets for a few advantages one can benefit from, when following our streams:

• Firstly, the harsh Arctic winters are not forgiving, and even with the overlays we provide our guests with, we’ve had some that didn’t get to enjoy it at the maximum because of low tolerance to cold.

• Secondly, during a visit up north, guests often choose to go whale watching only once, which means that they are at the mercy of both, weather conditions and orcas’ movement, and sometimes, they don’t get to see them at all, or very little, during their sea outing.

• Thirdly, it’s a bit of a high-priced ticket experience, when considering all things involved to get here.

• And lastly, the strong wind at sea, makes it quite often for a rough ride. And it’s always a possibility that some end up discovering being seasick, especially if they’re susceptible to motion sickness. And this, sadly, cuts short their enjoyment.

Following our channel will bring you the joy of following the life of Orcas and Whales in the Arctic, from the comfort of your home, minus the cold and the seasickness. 

Orcas and humpback whales gather in the Norwegian fjords – their feasting grounds, where they catch the herring. Based on past years’ experience and in close collaboration with other operators, it creates a network of knowledge that we rely on, in addition to our own search with the binoculars.

We only get as close as the orcas and humpback whales would allow us, never pushing the limits to get a better view or for a photo op. It’s important to note that when we find the animals, we slow the boat and let them approach us. Some days, they keep their distance and on others, they come right next to our boat. So whatever distance they are at, it’s one chosen by them only.

The absolute best time to see the orcas and humpbacks in Norway is between November and January. A total of 3 months, throughout the entire winter. And that is why we chose this exact period for the streaming months.

We are located in Skjervøy – 70 degrees North of Norway. This is where we bring our guests that want to join us for the whale watching months, and this is where we will be bringing you, to follow us along. Get you mittens ready, for some faraway support 🙂

You mean besides Orcas and whales? Tons!! Starting with dramatic snowcapped fjords, the incredible deep blue light of the polar night, bird life with their power moves, come feeding time, Norwegian fishing boats, various thrilling Arctic weather, and maybe some northern lights, and so much more…
