What we like about Arctic Lyngen Seacamp

  • Year-round operation combining sea fishing, whale watching (November to January), northern lights (September to April) and ski touring in the Lyngen Alps
  • Short transfer from Sørkjosen airport (about 20 minutes) and a manageable drive from Tromsø airport (about two hours)
  • On-site restaurant, sauna, hot tub and lavvu, so guests do not need to travel for meals or downtime

Worth knowing

  • !Lodges accommodate up to four guests per unit, so larger groups need to split across multiple lodges or use the campsite
  • !Boat fleet and filleting facilities are not described on the website, so fishing details should be confirmed directly before booking

Tips from experienced anglers

  1. 1Combine fishing with a whale safari between November and January, when herring and orcas enter the fjord systems around Skjervøy.
  2. 2Ask about Sørkjosen airport transfer when booking. The distance is short, and the camp can often arrange pickup for guests without a rental car.
  3. 3Remember the 2026 export quota of 15 kg of fish and fish products per person aged 12 and over, and that the quota only applies to fish caught at registered fishing camps.
