In a seaworthy speedboat with all the necessary safety equipment, we\u2019ll take you on a safe adventure trip along the dramatic mountain range known as Lofotveggen, past abandoned fishing villages, and onward to colonies of kittiwakes, northern gannets, and other sea birds. After observing these beautiful birds for a while, we\u2019ll cross the Maelstrom again before heading back to Reine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guided Tour<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The boat driver will meet you at our office where life jackets and rescue equipment will be distributed. Our boat drivers have all the necessary certifications and are well acquainted with the sea and conditions around Lofoten. They also have excellent local knowledge, so they also serve as great guides during the trip. The boats are equipped with rescue equipment according to current regulations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Abandoned Fishing Villages<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When everyone is on board and the safety instructions have been given, the boat will set off towards Lofotodden National Park. We\u2019ll stay close to land and take our time during the boat trip so you can see all the amazing things Lofoten has to offer. At the foot of the towering mountains, you\u2019ll see remnants of small, abandoned \u201cfiskev\u00e6r\u201d \u2013 traditional Norwegian fishing villages. Today, foundation walls and stone fences are the only remaining evidence of the hundreds of people that once lived there.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Maelstrom<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As we continue on our trip, we\u2019ll navigate past places where we have seen the majestic sea eagle over the years, and we\u2019ll travel out into the infamous Maelstrom, one of the world\u2019s strongest tidal currents. Here, you will see the incredible force of the sea. In the midst of the Maelstrom, we\u2019ll find islets and skerries, where cormorants, northern gannets, and other birds nest. Puffins, auks, eiders and eagles have often been spotted in the area. After observing these beautiful birds for a while, we\u2019ll cross the Maelstrom again and head back to Reine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4582,"template":"","class_list":["post-4666","aktivitet","type-aktivitet","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Maelstrom and Bird Safari - REEL AS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/reelofoten.no\/en\/aktivitet\/maelstrom-and-bird-safari\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Maelstrom and Bird Safari - REEL AS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Maelstrom and Bird Safari An Incredible Nature Experience with RIB Through the Maelstrom Join a fantastic nature experience through one of the world\u2019s strongest tidal currents.
