There are currently no cruises in our database that visit or depart from Bjornoya (Bear Island), Norway.
Byørnøya was named by Dutch navigator Willem Barents to commemorate his first sighting of the Far North's great white polar bear. The island sits like a large rock between the Norwegian mainland and Svalbard, radiating an eerie atmosphere because of the perpetual fog that hovers along its rocky shores. The island's southern face is made up of a cliff that may appear to be a moving wall of birds, with tens of thousands of murres and kittiwakes jostling for position on narrow ledges, and glaucous gulls breeding at the very top.
