Around Spitsbergen Spitzbergen 26 August - 8 September 2022 with SV Meander
Part 1: The southern west coast (Isfjord to Dunderbukta)
SV Meander in evening light in Colesbukta.
The first part of this voyage around Spitsbergen, with a warm-up landing directly on the first evening in Colesbukta and two stunning days in Bellsund. Mountain and valley, glacier and island, long hike and short walk, sun and wind, reindeer and ptarmigan, it was a all in there. And much more.
Hiking in Chamberlindalen.
These first days went quickly. The weather was partly quite windy, but altogether beautiful. Certainly not as cold as would have been normal in the recent past. Things have obviously changed. The final highlight of this first section of the trip was an evening landing in Dunderbukta. Stunning light! And a place that is certainly not part of the well-trodden tourist path.
Fossils on Akseløya.
