Description

Experience Arctic floating from Steam Pier on Kvaløya, just 25 minutes from Tromsø city centre. You wear a flotation suit and float on the calm fjord water, which feels very different from a regular swim. Before you go in, your guide gives you an introduction, the equipment and a safety briefing. You get there directly at Steam Pier, with free parking on site, so no bus is needed. Afterwards, warm up with a hot drink and fresh buns in our café. Optional add-on: a one-hour sauna session after the float. Requirements: minimum age 16, minimum height 150 cm and minimum weight 40 kg, and you must be able to swim. Free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure.
