WHAT YOU VISIT
Charm and Beauty of Sommarøy Island
Enjoy a glimpse of Tromsø's charms and well-preserved old buildings as you make your way across the 1,220-meter-long (4,000-foot-long) Sandnessund Bridge to Sommarøy Island, a secret treasure of peace and tranquility. Surrounded by rugged snow-topped mountains, the island's quaint fishing village offers a respite from the outside world. Soon, you'll disembark and walk to Sommarøy Beach, a pristine white-sand beach known for its crystal-clear waters. During your visit, you'll learn about island life as you soak up the impressive scenery.
PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES
Along the way, you'll learn about island life and be treated to the fishing boats in the pretty harbor, stunning views, with the big Senja Island to the south, the coastal landscapes to the north and the endless ocean to the west.
WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
Your return trip to Tromsø along the narrow Kattfjord will be scenic, passing the majestic Blåmann, the highest peak on Kvaløy Island.
Schedule
Special Notes
Tour can be operated in reverse order. The Northern Road is currently in a natural condition, with a particularly uneven and bumpy surface, and is subject to frequent maintenance works. As a result, the road may be closed to vehicular traffic without prior notice. As access to the rock carvings requires the use of this road and may not be reached in case of unexpected road closures. An alternative Southern Road will be used to access Sommarøy Island.
