MS Vesterålen
An intimate voyage along the Norwegian coast Named after our first coastal steamship of 1893, MS Vesterålen keeps alive the spirit, craftsmanship and working rhythm that defined the earliest Coastal Express sailings. Her 2025 refurbishment refreshed 100 cabins and introduced new Arctic Superiors and Mini Suites, while preserving her classic character that features plenty of polished brass and wood.
Cabins & Accommodation
Our cabins and suites Sailing with us is all about feeling warm, calm and connected to the coast. In your cabin or suite, you’ll experience the understated premium feeling Scandinavia is famous for.
Onboard Experiences
Freshly refurbished in 2025, MS Vesterålen is our classic coastal ship offering you a more intimate way to sail Norway’s historic route, with space for just 274 guests.
Entertainment
A voyage on MS Vesterålen is relaxed, personal and rooted in maritime tradition. You'll find comfortable lounges, many adorned with traditional Norwegian art, and generous outdoor decks ideal for watching the coastline and wildlife. The onboard experience is intentionally more traditional and 'boutique' than on our larger ships.
Activities
Enjoy a lecture on the ship's deck or in one of the conference rooms and learn something new.
Food & Drink
Norway's Coastal Kitchen Dining on board highlights ingredients sourced from over 70 local farms, fisheries, bakeries and producers along the coast. With two restaurants and the Explorer Lounge Bar, the atmosphere is relaxed and convivial, in keeping with the ship’s traditional character.
Well Being
Keep yourself feeling fresh and active in the Fitness Room or sweating away the day in the sauna.
