We take you from the Northern harbor wharf in central Piteå to the outermost part of the archipelago. You pass island covered with beautiful summer houses and fisherman’s huts in the inner archipelago. Soon you reach the more remote and unpopulated wilderness of the outmost island.
 
The time is approaching midnight but the sun is till shining – you are now in the extended northern sunset that keeps the northern night bright and light. At this latitude, 65°20´06´´N, only 200 km from the polar circle (66°33´46´´N), the sun just disappears under the horizon for a few minutes at midnight before the sunrise starts.
 
We stop the boat at sea, and get immersed in this experience, taking in the atmosphere of this bright and colorful night. The silence of the northern wilderness, the colors of the sunset and the sea makes a majestic experience.  We may also make a short stop at Solander point for a small walk and snack break.

Your seal experience start at the charming Renöhamn wharf, 7 km outside the town of Piteå, were your guide welcome you and take you onboard our comfortable boat M/B RENÖN. After a safety and program introduction, we start your tour to the seals passing island with beautiful summerhouses and fisherman´s cottages in the inner archipelago, to the outermost unsettled wilderness islands where moose, reindeer and even brown bear roam. The sea eagle is frequently seen in the area, rich in sea birds.
 
At the seal area, you will find numerous of grey seals roosting on rocks just beneath the water, giving an impression they are lying on the water. You hear them grunt and growl, while others are singing and howling almost as wolfs, giving a natural explanation to the mythological singing Sirens, the dangerous beautiful creatures, who lured sailors with their voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast of their islands. Also in this area, there are many old shipwrecks. Around the boat the heads of curious seals glance at you, until they slowly sink back in the water, to pop up somewhere else.
 
After this close encounter with these northern seals, you take a rest and have a taste of the coastal Swedish Lapland island snacks. On the way back, you may be lucky to see the rear Northern Harbor seal, a relic from the Ice age who has survived in these northern waters of the Baltic Sea.

Around the boat the heads of curious seals glance at you, until they slowly sink back in the water, to pop up somewhere else. Now you enter their world. Dressed with dry suits and snorkeling gear you meet the seals in their own environment – in the sea. From the boat you swim a short distance before the seals curiously approaches you looking at you from both above and below the water, without getting too close. They will curiously look at you, and if you get lucky, they may pass you at closer distance.
