Expedition Cruise Vlissingen-Spitsbergen - Seabirds, dolphins and whales

Simply take the train to Zeeland and then board a ship that takes you to Spitsbergen? It's possible! This magnificent cruise departs from Vlissingen or Hansweert (Zeeland) and takes you along the coast of England and Scotland, via the rarely visited Fair Isle and Jan Mayen, to Spitsbergen, which lies well within the Arctic Circle. Along the way, we'll see many seabirds such as gannets, puffins, razorbills, and guillemots, but we also have a chance of spotting marine mammals such as minke whales, fin whales, and more! Closer to the pack ice (and thus to Spitsbergen), we'll search for perhaps the most important target of this trip: the polar bear. We'll also be in the area where we might encounter the rare ivory gull.
