Elding Whale Watching in Iceland

Want to witness the wonderful whales of Reykjavík? Enjoy a magical journey into Faxaflói bay and explore the incredible wildlife that call Iceland their home!  You will be under the excellent guidance of marine biologist guides where you will learn everything about the whales. The most common species encountered on these tours are minke whales, humpback whales, white-beaked dolphins and harbour porpoises but see if you can spot a killer whale, fin whale, sei whale and long-finned pilot whale! The bay is even full of birdlife from puffins and gannets to guillemots and more! This really will be a day to remember!

The classic tour begins by boarding the whale watching boat, where you will find several outdoor viewing platforms, a heated indoor saloon with large viewing windows, a cafeteria where you can buy light refreshments, toilet facilities and a cloakroom where you can borrow blankets and overalls for the duration of the tour. You can stay outside in the fresh air but you are also welcome to settle inside the heated lounge and observe from within. One of the excellent naturalists will give a live commentary throughout the tour and notify you of any sightings as we go.
