Our Story

# About Boreal Yachting

Boreal Yachting was born from a deep love for the Arctic and a passion for sailing. Based in Kvaløya, just outside Tromsø, we've been sharing the magic of Northern Norway with guests from around the world for over 15 years.

Our mission is simple: to provide unforgettable Arctic experiences aboard luxury sailyachts, while respecting and preserving the pristine environments we explore. Every expedition is crafted with care, combining adventure with comfort.

With a fleet of nine purpose-equipped sailyachts and a team of experienced Arctic sailors, we offer everything from independent bareboat charters to fully crewed expeditions in Lofoten, Tromsø, and Svalbard.

We're proud to be Eco-Lighthouse certified, reflecting our commitment to sustainable tourism and environmental responsibility.
