We’ve arrived to Lovund, aka Puffin Island, right around the cutoff time of when these beautiful birds are about to leave for the season. Making the 2,000 ft hike to the top of the mountain, we don’t find any along the way, but do find a great anchorage to head to the next day.

Rounding to the north side of the island with our boat, we can see swarms of puffins flying through the sky, and make the sunset hike to sit near their nesting grounds and watch them come in that night. Hands down, one of the most beautiful spots we have ever traveled to.

Plus, we even get to end the night with a bonfire inside a cut little hut on the beach! The only thing that could make the occasion even more perfect is if we had a bottle of wine.

Much love from Norway!

Thank you SO MUCH to our Patrons. These amazing supporters help keep us on the boat, our camera equipment up to date, and the videos coming. Without our patrons, these videos would not be possible.
