3RD ANNUAL ATLAS YACHT™ CLUB REUNION EXPEDITION
The High Arctic of Norway beckons your explorer spirit. Picture yourself in Brønnøysund, surrounded by breathtaking panoramas with the mystical Torghatten Mountain standing tall, renowned for its iconic hole piercing through its heart — a natural wonder steeped in local lore and geological fascination. With the small size of our yacht, we can navigate the narrow Trollfjord for a scenic journey through waterfalls and incredible marine life. Stroll around the Arctic-Alpine Botanical Garden in Tromsø, an array of vibrant plant life that displays the Arctic’s contrasting varieties. A late night in Skarsvåg gives you time for in-depth explorations of the North Cape, like taking a hike to Kirkeporten rock or embarking on a king crab safari at Sarnes. Bear Island is a testament to the raw beauty and untamed wilderness that makes the High Arctic so captivating, with its sheer cliffs that stand as silent sentinels. Observe reindeer, walrus, Arctic foxes and other amazing wildlife with two days exploring Svalbard. Whether you’re a past Atlas Yacht Club member reconnecting with old friends or a new guest meeting fellow explorers, everyone is invited to celebrate new adventures with exclusive onboard events.
