Join us for a journey along Iceland's coast to experience the whales of the North Atlantic in their natural habitat.
Activity Details
We will pick you up from the nearest point to your hotel in Reykjavík and proceed to the harbor for a boat trip across Faxaflói Bay. Enjoy views of Reykjavík from the water.
We will have the chance to spot humpback whales in their natural habitat, and with luck, we might also see dolphins or killer whales. Look out for seabirds as well.
Marine biologists on board will provide commentary and facts about these marine mammals, including information on conservation efforts and their importance for ocean biodiversity.
After the trip, we will return to Reykjavík, leaving you with lasting memories of Iceland’s natural wonders.
