Sampo icebreaker

Experience Sampo on the Arctic high seas

Sampo’s home port is Kemi, a northern town lying at the gateway of Finnish Lapland on the shores of the Arctic Gulf of Bothnia. This vessel cleared the path through harsh frozen waters for about thirty years, until it was awarded the best possible retirement package – operating as a fascinating base for those wishing to travel the frozen seas.

The union of majestic steel, ice and sea is unique. Come and experience Sampo on the Arctic high seas, the splendour of which varies from the vibrant Northern Lights that colour early winter twilight to the dazzling sunshine snowscapes of early spring.
