Day 2 - Day 2-7. Svalbard Research
During our trip, we plan to visit many amazing places:
Prince Karl Land is the westernmost island in the Svalbard archipelago.
The entire island and the surrounding marine area are part of the Forlandet National Park.
The island was discovered by Dutch navigator and explorer Willem Barents in 1596.
This narrow strip of land is covered by a magnificent and snow-covered mountain range.
The island is also home to many species of birds and seals.
Danish Island is one of the islands of the Svalbard archipelago, located near the Magdalenfjord.
Like many other islands of Svalbard, the Danish island is not inhabited by people.
The island is famous for the fact that in 1897 it became the starting point for an expedition to the North Pole by balloon, led by the Swedish polar explorer Andre.
Fjords.
Svalbard offers the visitor countless picturesque fjords.
During our trip, we will explore some of them, such as: Lifdeffjord, which means "fjord of love", lying next to the snow-capped mountain peaks, and here we hope to cruise along the impressive glacier of Monaco.
Many rare species of geese nest in this area.
In the Crossfjord, we will find ourselves in front of a beautiful glacier on July 14, and we will be greeted by a large number of sea lions and kaira that nest on nearby rocks.
The Raudfjord is an area that attracts with its stunning natural beauty – the beautiful glaciers that prevail here.
The Nu-Aalesund Science Village is located in Kongsfjord.
It was from here that Amundsen and Nobile began their heroic expeditions to the North Pole.
North of Svalbard.
In the north of Svalbard, we will find ourselves in the edge of the ice.
Not many ships can enter these places and we will be able to admire the majestic icy landscape in silence.
Passing by the ice floes, we will have excellent chances to meet with polar bears.
Southwestern Svalbard.
The great Hornsund Fjord will give us spectacular views of glaciers and towering mountain peaks that often reach the clouds.
On a clear sunny day, you can see the top of the highest mountain – Horsundind (1,431 meters).
Hornsund is a favorite place for polar bears.

Mega yacht Le Boreal

The luxury expedition vessel Le Boreal embarked on its first cruise in the spring of 2010.

Built in the spirit of a private yacht — with large arched windows that define the character of the vessel, Le Boreal is a subtle combination of luxury, privacy and well—being. The interior design of the vessel was developed by the Jean-Philippe Nuel agency.

The mega yacht offers its guests accommodation in 132 cabins with ocean views, most of which are equipped with balconies, so no event will go unnoticed. This is a stylish and powerful vessel, which is equipped with the latest technology.

Everything has been thought out on board — the reception area, spacious halls, two restaurants, a well-equipped theater, an outdoor swimming pool, a beauty salon and a fitness center, a recreation area with panoramic windows. Cooking as an art is the main rule of fine restaurants on board.

There are 2 of them on board: a traditional restaurant where you can dine both indoors and outdoors. The second restaurant is an international cuisine with delicious dishes.

We have done everything not to disrupt the usual way of your life and to provide for all your desires: shows and presentations are held in comfortable salons, a spa is offered in partnership with Carita™, a more private atmosphere is available in the library and Internet center.

Comfortable cabins and suites are available for families as triple rooms or connecting rooms. There is also a game room with Wii™ video game consoles. All decks are serviced by an elevator.
