Natural Phenomena Cruises
It's easy to see why a Fred. Olsen cruise to discover the Natural Phenomena of our planet is so popular. The awe-inspiring Aurora Borealis is a magical show that lights up the skies above the Arctic in shades of pink, green and purple. [ReadMoreMob]While best seen from a specially designed shore tour to go in search of the Northern Lights, our Sky at Sea Signature Experience also offers guests the chance to wrap up warm and see them from on board your smaller ship. The eeriness of the Midnight Sun in Norway, taking a stroll around the decks of your ship when there is a beautiful sunrise or sunset, or experiencing beautiful fjordland scenery, our on board experts will be able to guide and advise you on when and how it's best to experience these outstanding natural events.
And, new for 2026, join us on board one of our three special solar eclipse cruises, where you will have the opportunity to experience this awe-inspiring natural phenomenon on 12th August, in destinations where your vantage point will be from the best place possible. Using specially provided glasses, you will have perfect views of the total eclipse from the decks of your ship.
