Saltstraumen & Beiarfjord cruise from Bodø

Experience the best of Bodøs surroundings on this 4-hour cruise through the Beiarfjord and into the Saltstraumen strait. 

Embark on a 3 to 4 hour journey (depending on weather conditions) on a modern hybrid-electric boat where the serene beauty of snow-capped mountains and icy waters awaits for you. With its expansive outdoor decks and an indoor lounge featuring large panoramic windows, the vessel offers uninterrupted views of the breathtaking scenery—allowing you to take in the fjord’s natural beauty in complete comfort and warmth.

Upon departure from Bodø, you first head in the direction of Saltstraumen. Saltstraumen is the world's strongest tidal current and requires upmost caution upon approach. Depending on conditions, you will glide onto the turbulent water. The strength of the tidal current varies from tour to tour.

After Saltstraumen you head onwards to the Beiarfjord. The Beiarfjord is a true hidden gem of the Bodø region. In the warmer months, the fjord opens all the way in, letting you travel deep into its tranquil waters. In winter, the surface freezes and parts of the fjord transform into a striking Arctic wonderland, offering a completely different kind of beauty. This remote region is difficult to access, and this excursion gives you rare views that can only be easily experienced by boat.

The crew onboard are committed to enhancing your journey, offering captivating stories and expert insights into the fjord’s history, wildlife, and geology on this guided tour. To fully round up your experience, why not buy a hot beverage or tasty local snacks on board.
