    In a distinctive building depicting ice floes pushed up on land by the rugged ocean in the Arctic, you find Polaria. Polaria is a journey of discovery for the whole family.

    The climate in the Arctic is changing more rapidly than anywhere else on Earth. Researchers from around the world are collaborating in Tromsø to understand what is happening. At Polaria, we explain what they are finding out.

    We invite you to an environmental-focused guided tour of Polaria. Journey through the vulnerable Arctic with our brand-new knowledge-based exhibitions, to get a better understanding of the complex Arctic ecosystem and how all life is connected. Our Arctic aquarium contains rare species that can only be seen in and around Tromsø. This tour is therefore a unique opportunity to study life below sea level in the Arctic as close as possible.

    The tour will delve into topics such as human impact on the environment, and the synergies of Arctic wildlife. This unique experience will be a great learning opportunity, and give the guests a sense of community to reflect on how our presence and decisions affect our planet.

    After the guiding you have the opportunity to explore all that Polaria has to offer. We recommend sitting down and enjoying our three spectacular panoramic films in our theatre and then catching the seal feeding and training at 15:30 pm. On your way out, make sure to stop by our unique gift shop filled with a wide range of local and Nordic high-quality products.
