Icebreaker Arktis cruise from Rovaniemi

Step aboard the powerful Icebreaker Arktis and set off on an unforgettable Arctic adventure across the frozen waters of the Bothnian Sea. Choose between a morning or afternoon departure and prepare for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in the heart of winter.

Your journey includes a 3-hour icebreaker cruise, round-trip transfers from Rovaniemi to the harbour in Kemi, and the rare opportunity to walk on the frozen sea (weather permitting). The highlight for many is ice floating — safely drifting in icy waters while wearing a thermal survival suit — an exhilarating yet peaceful Arctic experience. At the end of your cruise, you’ll receive a certificate to commemorate your adventure.

On board, relax across two cosy indoor decks and enjoy panoramic Arctic views from the modern café as the ship breaks through thick sea ice.
