Sailing to the Arctic | Departing Mainland Norway | Ep 39

We're finally setting off! In this episode, we begin our Arctic sailing expedition from mainland Norway towards the remote and icy wilderness of Svalbard. With the Barents Sea ahead of us, we brace for unpredictable weather, high seas, and a sense of true isolation. Our first target: Bear Island - a mysterious halfway mark where we hope to anchor and visit the Norwegian meteorological station. Why? Well... let's just say there's a chilly challenge waiting - and the chance to join a very exclusive naked bathing club (but that's coming up in the next episode!). ?? Welcome aboard Bushpoint Sailing! Hi from Jeanette & Fredrik ??! We're the couple behind Bushpoint, sailing our boat, just the two of us on small and big adventures! Join us as we explore remote coastlines, wild anchorages, and beautiful sailing routes through northern Europe and beyond.
