Elding expresses its profound disappointment upon learning the decision announced yesterday by the Minister of Food, Agriculture and Fisheries, to allow Hvalur hf. to continue whaling in 2023! Our deepest concerns lie with the hundreds of whales that may now be subjected to this practice, as it stands in stark contrast to the principles of environmental stewardship and conservation that we hold so dearly.

Due to unforeseeable circumstances, the service at Viðeyjarstofa café may be disrupted from August until September 2023. This may result in irregular opening hours that cannot be advertised in advance. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

This tour is a combination of Elding's Northern Lights Cruise and the Lava Show in Reykjavík, where you can immerse yourself in the wonders of nature and witness the magnificent auroras and the fiery forces of volcanic activity of Iceland!

Witness two awe-inspiring spectacles in one epic tour - the Classic Whale Watching and Lava Show Combo offers an extraordinary opportunity to encounter majestic marine life and witness the raw power of nature's volcanic forces!

Elding has partnered up with the Alda, a software that simplifies the management of safety issues at sea and coordinates priorities in safety matters on board boats, digitally. Through this collaboration we will be working towards developing the system further to cater to the needs of whale watching boats and cruise ships. 

Are you fascinated with lava, volcanoes, and geology? Would you like to see red-hot lava up close in a safe environment? If the answer is yes, you need to experience Lava Show Reykjavik. It is the only live lava show in the world and has become one of the must-see experiences in Iceland! 

The Elding team participated in an extensive rescue drill held by the Icelandic Coast Guard, along with numerous volunteers and first responders! What a great privilege to be a part of such a large training scheme and a fantastic opportunity for our crew to gain further knowledge of rescue at sea!
