Where to Find the Northern Lights

From late September to late March, our region is ideal for hunting the Northern Lights. Sommarøy is located in a geographically optimal position, increasing your chances even when solar activity is low. It is a prime location to experience this natural wonder, far from city light pollution, giving you a better chance to witness the aurora in a spectacular way. It is easy to lose track of time and place when visiting Sommarøy, but the Northern Lights remain unpredictable; we can never guarantee the phenomenon, but with patience and good planning, your chances are high.

Step outside the hotel to discover breathtaking viewpoints across the island; whether you head out on your own, join a guided Northern Lights tour, relax in the jacuzzi or sauna, or simply step onto your balcony. Contact us for tips and step outside for an unforgettable experience.
