Why go to Creative Vacations?
Doing a workshop with Creative Vacations is a way to see the landscape of the north. You will look at the landscape, the water and the light in a way you haven’t thought of before, see places you wouldn’t have seen otherwise and learn more about your camera’s ability to capture it all.
Location, location, location
A traditional, little farm consisting of a small house and a classic red barn, the way you find them all over Northern Norway, is the location. It’s found on the little, green island of Håkøya, with some interesting archaeology, a dramatic WWII history and a rich bird life. Håkøya is attached to the bigger island of Kvaløya by a low bridge. Kvaløya has a dramatic and varied landscape of high mountains, friendly greenery and a rough outer coast facing the open Atlantic. Tromsø is just half an hour away, but that is easy to forget once you’re there.
