What to do and see in Longyearbyen, Svalbard: The Best Boat Tours & Water Sports

April 24, 2022 Madelene Haan

Longyearbyen is a great jumping-off point for experiencing the humbling power of the Arctic islands. Glaciers, mountains and primitive wildlife are the main attractions here. Be warned, though: Those polar bears look cuddly enough, but they are extremely dangerous and don't take kindly to gawking tourists.
