SOMMARØY

How to get to Sommarøy

Northern lights is visible from early September to early April. Fall is a fantastic time to experience the Aurora, not that cold and you could stay out for longer. 

October Northern lights at Sommarøy Arctic Hotel Tromsø

Sommarøy, the most western point in Tromsø municipality, has low light pollution and you could enjoy the green dance even from your hotel room or the pier outside the restaurant and bar. Did we mention view to open sea? Next island is Greenland!

Temperatures drops and the rain comes as white fluffy snow. The time of the year when the magic comes to life. Snow clad mountains drops dramatically in to the fjords, while Aurora dance at night.

Winter

Sommarøy is just the right size for a leisurely two-hour walk around the island. It offers breathtaking views at every turn! The island is connected to Kvaløya by the iconic Sommarøy Bridge. Here, at the edge of the world, you'll discover a thriving, authentic fishing village— this is the real Arctic Norway, not Disneyland.

Not a central location​
Sommarøy is far away from central. One hotel, a camping and and grocery store. Nature like you’ll never seen before. White Arctic snow clad beaches. Far away from the cities, with low light pollution. Perfect to watch the Northern lights in the sky and with a bonus like nowhere else: the reflections of the lights dancing in the sea. Fall in love again with Mother Nature.
The dark side is in our nature
While this is a quote from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, this also applies on Sommarøy, but with a slightly different meaning. From 22nd November to 18th January there is no sun at all. Polar nights is when the sun is below horizon throughout the day. This gives fantastic colors in the sky, sea and nature and is a photographers dream with twilight for hours.
