Phenomenal experience amongst lovely people

by Charlotte Marwood

Departure in June 2024

Region: Arctic

Destinations: Svalbard

Ship: m/v Ortelius

Highlights: Cleaning up Svalbard, Photo Workshop, Kayaking, Blue Whale, Fin Whale, Harp Seal, Kittiwake, Leopard Seal, Polar Bear, Atlantic puffin, Sei Whale, Walrus, Long Hikes

From the moment we connected with the Oceanside team in Longyearbeyn the experience was fantastic. Managing everyone’s expectations is not easy and yet we arrived as newbies to the whole polar experience and were welcomed into the community. Balancing our mad family and friends antics with showcasing the best of all the opportunities possible it was a fantastic trip for all and has left a life long impact on us all.Text
