Status: RUNNING

We are sailing from the Old Harbor in Reykjavik today. According to the forecast the wind is calming down but there will be movement on the boat. If you are sensitive to motion sickness we offer preventative tablets in the ticket office, free of charge! On board there are heated indoor areas but we also have overalls to keep you warm out on deck.

Tour at 13:00

Report from Eldey: Can you paint with all the colors of the wind? Well Iceland certainly could today in the morning and afternoon. The colors of sunrise and sunset were simply spectacular today. Blues, pinks, purples, oranges and red were responsible for a stunning scenery throughout our tour from Reykjavik. Still the wind was blowing quite strong, but the sailing out there was not too bad so that we could enjoy the sunset on the one and the rising moon on the other side. Unfortunately we did not find any whales, dolphins or porpoises so we offered complimentary tickets to our passengers to come back for free and try again within two years. Still we had a good time out in the bay with this beautiful scenery.
