Ski and sail adventure in Norway

Planet

CARBON REDUCTION

Our philosophy is simple: to explore the breathtaking beauty of our planet while leaving the lightest possible footprint. By choosing sailing as our primary mode of travel, we prioritize the rhythm of the wind over the noise of an engine.

Harnessing the Wind: We set the sails whenever conditions allow. This authentic experience significantly reduces our reliance on fossil fuels and preserves the tranquility of marine ecosystems.

Green Dining: We believe sustainable eating is key. We serve two vegetarian meals per trip, and all our menus are fully adaptable for vegan and vegetarian diets, reducing the environmental pressure of intensive livestock farming.


ENVIRONMENT AND WILDLIFE

Environment & Wildlife Stewardship: We don’t just visit the Arctic and the Norwegian coast; we act as their guardians. Our trips are designed to foster deep respect for the fragile ecosystems of the North.

Low-Impact Logistics: All our departure points are accessible via public transport. We provide every guest a map and guide on how to reach us by using low carbon transport.

Conscious Consumption & Circularity: We minimize waste onboard. To ensure nothing goes to waste, we partner with local associations to donate surplus food, ensuring our presence benefits the community.

Strict Wildlife Protocols: We adhere to AECO guidelines in the Arctic. We maintain respectful distances from whales and bird colonies, ensuring encounters are always on the animals' terms.

Active Preservation: We don't just "leave no trace",we aim to leave places better than we found them. We regularly organize beach clean-ups during our shore excursions.

Spreading the Flow: Using small vessels allows us to navigate away from overcrowded sites. By visiting lesser-known areas, we help prevent overtourism and distribute the benefits of travel more evenly.
