Excursion Sea safari via rib-boat tour at Alesund

Cruise line: Silversea
Difficulty:

Discover the coastal beauty and marine life of Ålesund in an exciting new way during this picturesque sightseeing excursion via RIB-boat.


Ålesund, RIB-Boat Adventure, Harbour, Coastal Waters, Runde Bird Rock

Depart the pier for the short walk to your awaiting rigid inflatable boat (RIB). After receiving your personal flotation device and safety and riding instructions, begin your approximately 90-minute RIB-boat adventure. Head out of the harbour and explore the coastal waters around Ålesund. In mild weather and with little wind, your captain ventures out as far as the Runde Bird Rock. If the sea is a little choppier, your captain stays within the sheltered waters of Ålesund.


Birdlife, Eagles, Seals, Marine Life

Along the way, look for the abundant local birdlife and an occasional eagle. Your captain searches for interesting wildlife, and manoeuvres the RIB-boat close to a rock to observe basking seals. The route taken is the captain's choice, depending on the weather and fitness level of the guests. At the conclusion of your tour, disembark your RIB-boat and commence the short walk back to the pier.
