You Can Now Dive With Orcas in the Norwegian Fjords — and You Might Even See the Northern Lights While You’re There
You Can Now Dive With Orcas in the Norwegian Fjords — and You Might Even See the Northern Lights While You’re There
I know Sven, who is behind Northern Explorers and will visit the killer whales this year in November. I did it already in 2015, when these animals were much more to the south. They follow the schools of herring, which stays a few years in the same place in winter, and then moves suddenly for several hunderds of kilometers.
So, no garantuees, but the herring moved only two winters ago, so now is a good moment I guess. Everyone visiting this hopes to see a bait ball. I was lucky enough to see one and watched the orcva feed on the herring for about 30 minutes from very close.
Otherwise, you will certainly see orca's, but swimming by slowly.
If you want to go this winter, you should hurry choosing your operator, as these safaris are quiet popular.
And if you want to scuba dive them, bring a rebreather. No bubbles allowed. So most of us use a snorkel.
