Summary
Voyage around Spitsbergen where we also visit Kvitøya. We have chances to see the King of the Arctic, Walruss, Reindeer, various bird species and surprisingly beautiful flora. We hope to get to the rarely visited Kvitøya farthest to the east, close to the Russian territory. The island is dominated by an icecap, which leaves a small area bare of ice and snow. We will land at the western tip at Andréeneset, where the Swedish explorer Andrée and his companions perished in 1897. We will also try to get to Kraemerpynten in the east, where an enormous group of Walrus resides.
