Everything You Can Do on a Svalbard Expedition Cruise​

Lomond VoyagesOctober 16, 2026

Svalbard is a group of Arctic islands halfway between the northern tip of Norway and the North Pole. Its name comes from the Old Norse for “cold coast,” and it’s often called Europe’s last great wilderness.​

A Silversea expedition cruise flies you straight to Longyearbyen, the main town, where the ship is waiting to take you out into the wild. Every day brings a new way off the ship: a Zodiac ride up to the face of a glacier, a kayak through a quiet fjord, or a hike ashore with an expert guide.​

Walruses stretch out on the beaches in the sun, whales surface in the fjords, and the expedition team keeps binoculars on the ice all day — because this is polar bear country.​

From April to August, the sun never sets in Svalbard, so the day ends whenever you decide it does.​
