What March in Tromsø is actually like

In March, Tromsø sits around 2°C by day and drops to about -1°C after dark, so a light layer earns its place in the bag even in high summer.

Expect rain on roughly 52% of days, usually passing rather than persistent, and about 11 hours of daylight to spend outside. Crowds are quiet this month, and a 5-night trip from Tallinn works out at around €1,050 including flights, a mid-range stay and everyday spending.

The sun does not set for two months. Neither do the hiking trails. Days here tend to fill up with whale watching, cable car to storsteinen, arctic-brewed beer — which is why Tromsø scores 38 out of 100 for march: not your escape.
