Ice Breaker Experience in Lapland

What to Expect:

Step aboard an authentic Arctic Ice Breaker and journey through the frozen waters of the Bothnian Sea. Feel the immense power of the ship as it cracks through thick ice, offering a one-of-a-kind experience in the heart of Lapland’s wintry landscape.

The ship will stop to create a swimming pool in the frozen sea, where you can float effortlessly in a dry survival suit. You can also walk on the ice surrounding the ship, capturing breathtaking views of this icy landscape. Enjoy warm drinks on board, relax in the cozy lounge, and take in a film about icebreakers around the world.
