Cold Coast Exploring Norway’s Svalbard Archipelago

from Luxe Beat Featured Articles Hosted by Luxe Beat

“Look out for polar bears!” People would say this whenever we mentioned we were going on a ten-day polar expedition cruise above the Arctic Circle. Call us crazy but polar bears happened to be one of the main reasons why we journeyed to the “Cold Coast,” an old Norse word for Svalbard. In Norway’s northernmost archipelago, polar bears roam free. However, the tourism brochures take creative license in proclaiming the polar bears here outnumber Svalbard’s human inhabitants. The plain truth is there are only approximately 250 polar bears living in Svalbard’s coastal regions. To read the full article by Jett and Kathryn Britnell visit Luxe Beat Magazine.
