Icebreaker Cruise
Cruise aboard a real icebreaker vessel through frozen sea ice, watching the ship's bow crunch through ice sheets that would stop conventional vessels, then float in a dry suit in the frozen Arctic Ocean. The Sampo icebreaker in Kemi, Finland is the most accessible icebreaker experience in the world, operating November–April in the Bothnian Bay. Nuclear icebreaker voyages from Murmansk offer the ultimate version of this experience, reaching the geographic North Pole.
