A unique exploration

MS Nordkapp is named after the northernmost point on mainland Europe: North Cape (71ºN) - one of the geographical highpoints you can visit on a Hurtigruten voyage.

The Ship

MS Nordkapp has her own on-board Expedition Team and serves as a university at sea. Interesting lectures inside as well as out on the sun deck of the ship make this an exciting and educational journey. Topics depend on the season and the waters Hurtigruten sail in. The Expedition Team hosts a lecture programme and evening gatherings daily. Out on deck you may participate in live points of interest to learn more about the nature, culture and other phenomena they encounter along the coast. In addition, the Expedition Team will introduce you to the uniquely Norwegian notion of `friluftsliv´, and encourage you take part in `friluftsliv´ hikes and activities during the journey

Accommodation

Refurbished in 2016 MS Nordkapp now features a modern, Arctic-inspired interior. On board are three different restaurants, a Multe bakery and ice cream bar, a sauna and fitness room. Out on deck you can enjoy the view from one of the two Jacuzzis. There is also have a cosy bar at the front of the ship where you can enjoy a nice traditional drink. The ship additionally has a large compass area with reception, a tour guide, conference room and shop

Cuisine and Dining

Sailing with a smaller number of passengers than the larger ships, guests can expect delicious cuisine and excellent attention to detail. The main restaurant spans the width of the ship, guaranteeing fantastic views even when dining.

Activities

The expedition and information team are always on hand, bringing you the most memorable and exciting excursions throughout your voyage.
