HAve you seen
the light?

At Sommaroy, one hour from the Arctic capital Tromso, you'll find a natural beauty like nowhere else.

SEVEN MONTHS OF GREEN MAGIC

Sommaroy, Norway

In winter, or to be exact – from early September to late March, the northern lights are right there on your doorstep – no safari, hike or outdoor sleeping necessary. Thanks to the lack of light pollution on the scarcely populated island, you can step onto the balcony with a cosy blanket and enjoy a hot drink while watching the colourful lights dance in the sky. Sommaroy is the end of the road at Tromso municipality – next island is Greenland!

Accommodation with view

See the lights from your own balcony, while you stay totally comfortable in our different kinds of accommodation. Hotel rooms, suites, sea houses, or apartments - the choice is yours.

Sauna and jacuzzi

Jump in to one of your outdoor jacuzzis. Enjoy our finish dry sauna for free, and for the though ones - take a swim in our lagoon. Sometimes miss Aurora Borealis dance for you!

Did you know that the Northern Lights are always there? All you need is darkness. Most people believe it has to be winter to see the Northern Lights, but September and October are lovely autumn months for Aurora. The temperatures are not as freezing cold and you could stay out for longer.
