Explore the extreme light and dark extremes during a visit to Longyearbyen - an extra-ordinary settlement right at the top of our planet! In summer you can marvel at 24 hours of sunlight, while winter brings on its own unique experience with up to 24 hours of darkness in what is famously called 'The Polar Night'. Plus, daily flights from Oslo make it incredibly accessible – making this place one not easily forgotten.
Feel like a true explorer and get close to the breathtaking nature of Svalbard on an expedition cruise! Join Poseidon Expeditions by https://poseidonexpeditions.com/arctic/svalbard/ for some ice cold fjord action. It is a well-known polar cruise operator that offer numerous Svalbard tours, such as to Spitsbergen, Greenland, Polar Ice Edge, and more. For something different take a daytrip to Pyramiden - the abandoned ghost town with its deserted buildings is ready for you to explore it. Or try dog sledding with huskies! And how about hiking up one of Longyearbyen's mountains? Finally, be brave and wrap up warm before heading out into Adventfjorden in your kayak at twilight - what could be more magical?!
