Itinerary
The ship sets sails from Reykjavík’s Old Harbour and during your journey, you’ll sail among the small islands in the Faxaflói Bay, as well as along the coast of Reykjavík, providing you with a fantastic view of the city as you search for the wildlife in the water. The most common sights are minke and humpback whales, dolphins, and porpoises. However, there is always a chance to spot a few orcas (also known as killer whales) as well as a wealth of other species. The professional team onboard is very experienced in spotting whales and is dedicated to making sure their passengers leave with a smile!

This bay has few islands and the ones it does have are close to land, in particular contrast to the bay directly north of it, Breiðafjörður, which has the most islands of any bay in Iceland.

Lovely experience! We were lucky to have a beautiful weather day, since weather in Iceland is so unpredictable. We were able to see dolphins and whales. our guide was very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this tour.
Brilliant. Small enough boat to be nimble, big enough not to get seasick. A really great experience, with an excellent guide and team, and a boat with all the facilities - the blankets were a nice touch. We saw whales and dolphins. There are plenty of other whale watching options from Reykjavík, bus I’d really recommend this one.
