OVERVIEW

Cruise through Geirangerfjord on a small private boat and be awed by the natural beauty as you fish for Norwegian Atlantic cod and other species. You will board the MS Bølgen right at the dock in Geiranger and soon be out on the fjord, which UNESCO named a World Heritage site for its outstanding natural beauty. Being one of the world’s longest and deepest fjords, there is plenty to admire, including its steep-sided rock walls and the waterfalls that tumble off them. It won’t be long until you reach an area where great numbers of fish are typically caught. The bait and tackle will be provided, as well as tips on how best to land a big fish. These cold waters are teeming with cod, pollock and haddock, which are known to put up quite a fight. To complete this authentic fjord experience, guests will finalize the tour by enjoying freshly made fish cakes ashore in Geiranger — the perfect way to wrap up the adventure. The fish cake is quick, tasty, and a beloved local snack made according to long Norwegian traditions. This is the kind of flavor that takes Norwegians back to their childhood. Now it’s your turn to try a local favorite – enjoy!
