• CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 9:00, 13:00

All whale watching tours are on schedule today from Reykjavík! Remember to dress according to weather and feel free to borrow our thermal overalls if needed!

Report from Eldey: During this cold morning we sailed into the bay with a small swell and a bit of wind we enjoyed our morning coffee and watched the sun rise. About 20 minutes after leaving the harbour we started seeing the first sights of wildlife. We spotted 2 humpback whales were traveling fast even further into the bay getting in very shallow waters close to Videy island! We had the chance of seeing them fluke multiple times before time started to run out and we needed to return to the harbour.
