Experience Aurora Borealis from Qoornoq with a professional photographer
Take a trip to a peaceful island Qoornoq for a Northern Lights Photo Tour.
When it gets dark and the stars come out, you will be surrounded by the quiet beauty of icebergs stranded along the coastline of Qoornoq, each one looking different, making great foreground subjects for the northern lights or even just a starry night.
A professional photographer will help you take pictures of the Northern Lights as they move across the sky filled with stars.
No matter if you are good at photography or just starting out and just have a phone, our expert will be there to help you get great photos, whether it’s of you with the Northern Lights in the background or just giving you advice on how to use your camera well.
Qoornoq is the ideal location for this, as you can capture quaint cabins, ice in so many different ways and stunning mountains all around the island.
We spend approx. 1-2 hours in Qoornoq, depending on conditions. We highly advise dressing very warmly for our time on land. The sailing itself should be around an hour and a half each way, occasionally passing the odd icebergs under the starry night sky.
It is a good idea to bring an extra source of light if you wish to try and light up some of the icebergs. And we highly recommend warm rubber boots as the ice is on the beach.

Important Note:
When you are going out on an adventure, it is highly recommended to bring both camera and binoculars. It is also advisable to bring warm clothes. On this boat there is a cabin, but prepare and bring clothes that keep you warm. A neck warmer and glowes is always good.
