NORTHERN LIGTHS HOLIDAYS

CHASE THE AURORAS FROM YOUR VILLA

WINTER 2026-2027

Discover Northern Lights in Merihelmi

7 December 2026 – 11 April 2027

Celebrate the festive season with our exclusive Christmas & New Year experiences, available
21 December 2026 – 3 January 2027.

The Northern Lights are one of nature's most breathtaking phenomena, and the frozen shores of the Bothnian Bay provide a unique setting to experience them. Away from city lights and surrounded by the peaceful Arctic landscape, every clear evening offers the possibility of witnessing the sky come alive with dancing colours.

Whether you choose a guided walk across the frozen sea, an exhilarating night snowmobile adventure or a private aurora hunt tailored to the latest forecasts, each experience is designed to maximise your chances of seeing the Aurora while immersing you in the beauty of Finland's Arctic coast.
