Norway

Norway's extensive Arctic and Atlantic coastline provides unique pelagic birding in European waters. Trips from Rost, Vardo, and Tromso venture into the rich Norwegian and Barents Seas, where Atlantic Puffin, Northern Fulmar, and Pomarine Jaeger are common. Summer voyages offer midnight sun birding, with chances for Brunnich's Guillemot, Little Auk, and occasional Sabine's Gull.
