MS Vesterålen is named after the first Hurtigruten ship that started to sail along the rugged Norwegian coast back in 1893. It is also the area just to the north of Lofoten, and offers some spectacular scenery.
Bright, cheerful public areas and lounges contribute to the informal atmosphere of MS Vesterålen. Throughout your voyage you can enjoy the views from the panorama lounge or the extensive art collection on board. With limited passenger capacity, a voyage on MS Veste¬r¬ålen is truly something special.
