Spitsbergen with SV Meander, 26 August - 08 September 2023
Triplog and photo galleries
SV Meander in evening light in Wahlenbergfjord, Nordaustland.
Near the end of August, the light is really becoming beautiful, with the sun low above the horizon and sunsets that last for hours. And that was the time when we went out with SV Meander to north Spitsbergen. We followed the west- and north coast and went to Hinlopen Strait and Nordaustland, deep into those beautiful fjords and to the northernmost islands. The very northernmost ones, that is. And then further on in the opposite direction, to the west coast and finally back to Isfjord.
The weather presented itself in a range of moods, but never really rough or otherwise really bad, and we had some really golden days. And the wildlife was there. And the atmosphere on board was good. So, as a bottomline it is absolutely safe to say that we had a great time! I want to take the opportunity here to thank all who have been a part of that, who made it work so smoothly and that everything was fun and pleasure. First of all Mario Czok, captain and owner of the good ship SV Meander, and his good crew! Big thanks to all of you, I am looking forward to more! 😃
Mario working hard as always 😎 here caught in the act in Wahlenbergfjord.
Triplog: Spitsbergen with SV Meander, 24 August – 08 September 2023
There are two different versions, differing in file size/print quality. The content is exactly the same. And anyway, it is in German, because it was a German speaking trip.
You can actually visit some of the places that we have been to on this trip online. There are pages with photo galleries and 360 degree panorama photos on this website:
