Sail through the rugged coastlines and calm bays, and trek through the flower-dappled tundra and towering cliffs of Spitsbergen.

The Arctic might not be a place you’d normally think of visiting in the summer, when the weather back home is great. But to experience the incredible variety of wildlife and diverse flora that consider Spitsbergen home, the summer is the absolute best time to visit. As the Arctic comes to life this summer, Quark Expeditions, the Leader in Polar Adventures, offers the best selection of adventure itineraries to this vast, awe-inspiring landscape that is known as the “Realm of the Polar Bear”.

Spitsbergen, which translates to “pointed mountains,” is the largest island in the Svalbard Archipelago north of Norway, edging the Arctic Ocean, the Greenland Sea and the Norwegian Sea. You’ll explore its rocky coastlines and spectacular fjords on kayaks and Zodiacs, and trek through the colourful tundra and over soaring cliffs. A visit to Longyearbyen, the world’s northernmost town, will illuminate the region’s fascinating history and culture.

You can experience the austere beauty of Spitsbergen this summer on a Quark Expeditions cruise tailored just for you, now up to 25% off. Choose from two amazing itineraries:
