Behind every journey are the people who make it come alive.
At Northern Yachting, we don’t just assign a crew - we choose them with care, based on the kind of experience we want to create. Some trips call for quiet reflection among the fjords, others for raw adventure in wild weather - and our crew is handpicked to match that feeling.
Each of us comes from a different story: some from the offshore world, others from mountain guiding, sailing, or marine biology. Together we share one thing - a deep love for the sea, the north, and the people who come here to feel it.
When guests step on board, we want them to sense that connection.
That they’re not just joining a trip, but a small team of people who truly care about what happens out there - about safety, discovery, and those rare moments when everything feels perfectly in tune with nature.
