Celebrating the return of the sun on Basecamp Ship in the Ice

When the winter has been long and dark, it is time to celebrate the return of the sun. February 27th-28th, 2010 you can join us in welcoming the sun back to Basecamp Ship in the Ice.

Basecamp Ship in the Ice – a unique experience! Staying aboard the only hotel boat frozen in sea ice in the world is a unique experience for modern people. This is a great opportunity to experience the spectacular arctic nature up close. In the
arctic you find silence and light you cannot find any other place. And maybe you are lucky to catch a glimpse of a polar bear wandering by the boat!
To experience the arctic nature on Svalbard, with the special feeling, the light and the silence, you will have to leave “the city”, and the most exclusive and exciting place for unique experiences you will find aboard the ship, frozen in the ice covering the Temple Fjord. An early walk on the deck before breakfast will give you memories for life and awaken your appetite.
