Teriberka and a Two Hour Arctic Ocean Boat Trip
Group departures run Tuesday and Friday, year round, each about 12 hours including the return transfer from Murmansk.
This day trip pairs the Teriberka village and nature park route with two hours on the Arctic Ocean. Group departures run Tuesday and Friday, year round, with a return transfer from Murmansk and English-speaking accompaniment on the land programme. Nature park admission and the boat trip are both included; lunch and the optional coastal sleigh transfer cost extra. Each boat has a heated cabin and a small toilet, and sailing depends on the day's weather. The full programme runs approximately 12 hours.
Your tour programme
Teriberka village and nature park
The land part of the day covers the Teriberka village and nature park route, with nature park admission included in the price. English-speaking accompaniment runs through this part of the programme.
Two hours on the Arctic Ocean
The boat adds a two-hour sailing, giving you a view of the village and the rocky coast from the water instead of only from shore. Boat operation depends on weather conditions on the day, so the sea portion isn't a separate booking that can always run independently of conditions. The captain speaks Russian on board; English-speaking accompaniment is provided on land.
Comfort on board
Each boat has a heated cabin and a toilet. In winter the cabin can still feel cool, so dress for the full trip rather than relying on the heating. The toilet compartment is small and can be hard to use in a bulky jacket.
Life jackets are available on board. If you're travelling with a very small child, tell the operator their age and size before booking so staff can check a suitable jacket is available.
Transport and extras
A return transfer from Murmansk is included, and the whole day runs for approximately 12 hours. Lunch and the optional coastal sleigh transfer aren't part of the standard price; tell the operator about allergies or dietary requirements before booking if you're arranging a meal through them.
What is included
Meeting and preparation
Your meeting point
We confirm the meeting point and departure time for this programme before booking. Tell us where you are staying when you send your request.
Before you go
- Dress for the whole day, including the boat: the heated cabin can still feel cool in winter, especially with wind on the water.
- Plan your own lunch or ask the operator about options in advance, since lunch isn't part of the standard programme.
- If you're travelling with a very small child, tell the operator their age and size before booking so a suitable life jacket can be checked.
- If you're booking a private tour, ask directly whether you'll be on a shared boat or a private charter, since the two aren't the same thing.
- If you'll already be in Teriberka and don't need the Murmansk transfer, ask about the stand-alone two-hour boat trip instead of this combined day.

Frequently asked questions
What's included in this tour?
Nature park admission, the two-hour boat trip, a return transfer from Murmansk and English-speaking accompaniment on the land programme. Each boat has a heated cabin and a small toilet.
Is lunch included?
No. Lunch and the optional coastal sleigh transfer cost extra. Tell the operator about allergies or dietary requirements before booking.
What language is the tour in?
English-speaking accompaniment covers the land programme. The captain speaks Russian on board.
Can I book just the boat trip?
Yes. If you'll already be in Teriberka and don't need the return transfer from Murmansk, the two-hour Arctic Ocean boat trip is available on its own. The captain speaks Russian; English-speaking accompaniment is not included on the boat-only trip and can be requested separately.
When is it possible to see whales from the boat?
Whale activity picks up from around late April through the end of August; outside that window, sightings become unlikely. Even in season, what you see depends on where the whales happen to be that day.
Are life jackets available for children?
Yes, life jackets are available on board. If you're travelling with a very small child, tell the operator their age and size before booking so a suitable jacket can be checked for them.
What happens if the boat trip can't go out because of weather?
The trip can move to another day. If a storm runs for several days and sailing isn't possible at all, the boat portion is refunded and the Teriberka sightseeing part of the day still goes ahead.
Does a private tour include a private boat?
Not automatically. A private land transfer doesn't by itself mean an exclusive boat charter; your booking will specify whether you join a shared sailing or book a separate charter.
Is there a toilet on the boat?
Yes, each boat has a heated cabin and a toilet. The compartment is small and can be awkward to use in a bulky winter jacket, and the cabin itself may still feel cool in winter.

Teriberka's coast, seen from the water as well as the shore
Teriberka sits on the Barents Sea coast in the Murmansk region, and most day visits cover the village and the nature park by land. This tour adds a two-hour boat trip on the Arctic Ocean to that route, so you see the rocky coastline and the village itself from offshore rather than only from the shoreline paths.
It's a separate booking from the stand-alone two-hour boat trip, which skips the Murmansk transfer for travellers already in Teriberka, and from land-only Teriberka itineraries that don't include any time at sea. Choose this version when both the return transfer from Murmansk and the time on the water matter to your day, rather than arranging the two separately.
