We flew into Evenes Airport, and made our way by coach to the Fjord to pick up our safari boat.

Early morning on the Fjord
Trawlers fishing for herring, the main source of food for the Orcas
This was the Sun at midday. They only get two hours of sunlight this time of
year, however they get an extended twilight, which gives about 6 hours of light,
including dawn and dusk.

After the safari we docked at Narvik where we had a tour of the war museum before taking a coach back to Evenes Airport for our return flight. On route we were lucky to see an aurora display.
For further details of the Orca Safari take a look at the Tysfjord web site, which has many more photos of Orcas
