We describe ourselves
as artisans who have been developing “Discovery
Cruises” in Spitzberg for more than 10 years.
We also offer “Sea and Mountain” cross-country
skiing in the north of Norway.
Bernard Audrezet (40 years old) comes
from the Finistère region of Brittany:
"After having spent 10 years on ocean-racing multihulls, I decided to satisfy
my longtime passion for "the Great North" and to share
it with others. Which is how "Escales Polaires" came into being.
We are a small structure and wish to preserve the "confidential" dimension.
Three of us crew the boat, "Isbjørn II", assisted by one person
ashore."
Quality and seriousness are our priorities.
After a season spent identifying suitable locations in
Spitzberg in 1991, we were able to offer our first "Discovery
Trips" in 1995. Since that time, as the seasons
have passed, we have acquired the experience necessary to accompany
you in your discovery and travels in this polar
region which remains accessible.
In 1997 we organised our first Sea & Mountain
trips (cross-country skiing based on a boat in
Norway). Since then, with the help of guides, we are constantly
improving the quality of our services and knowledge of
the region.
