Longyearbyen to Reykjavik


Cruise overview
Depart Longyearbyen and explore Svalbard’s remote realm of glacier-carved fjords, rugged coastlines, and remarkable wildlife beneath the lingering Arctic light. Crossing the vast Greenland Sea, call at rarely visited Jan Mayen, where the towering Beerenberg volcano rises from the open ocean. As you cross the Arctic Circle, Iceland’s remote northern shores come into view. Discover seabird-rich islands, abandoned outposts, and striking fjords shaped by isolation and time. Cascading waterfalls and rugged coastal beauty provide a memorable finale as you arrive in vibrant Reykjavík, completing an extraordinary voyage through the North Atlantic frontier.
Itinerary
Longyearbyen
Longyearbyen is the biggest settlement in Svalbard. Seat of the Norwegian administration, it also has the best services and infrastructure in the archipelago. Located deep in the Adventfjord, a sidearm of the Isfjorden (Icefjord), Longyearbyen’s airport can be used all-year round, but its harbor is blocked by ice in winter. Most shops, hotels, restaurants and a hospital are within easy walking distance of the port. One of the most prominent buildings in town is the UNIS center, where several Norwegian universities have joined forces to operate and offer the northernmost higher education to both Norwegian and international students. Adjacent to UNIS, and well worth a visit, is the Svalbard Museum, covering the natural history and exploitation of Svalbard. Remnants of the former mining activity can be seen all around Longyearbyen and even in town.
