Why you’ll love this…
  • You’ll cruise across the frozen Bothnian Sea on board the powerful Icebreaker Arktis
  • There’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to float in icy waters wearing a thermal survival suit
  • You’ll walk on the frozen sea and watch the ship break through thick Arctic ice
  • It’s a complete Arctic experience with round-trip transfers from Rovaniemi included
What to expect

Step aboard the powerful Icebreaker Arktis and set off on an unforgettable Arctic adventure across the frozen waters of the Bothnian Sea. Choose between a morning or afternoon departure and prepare for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in the heart of winter.

Your journey includes a 3-hour icebreaker cruise, round-trip transfers from Rovaniemi to the harbour in Kemi, and the rare opportunity to walk on the frozen sea (weather permitting). The highlight for many is ice floating — safely drifting in icy waters while wearing a thermal survival suit — an exhilarating yet peaceful Arctic experience. At the end of your cruise, you’ll receive a certificate to commemorate your adventure.

On board, relax across two cosy indoor decks and enjoy panoramic Arctic views from the modern café as the ship breaks through thick sea ice.
