• CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 13:00

Today's whale watching tour from Reykjavík is on schedule! Remember to dress according to weather and feel free to borrow our thermal overalls if needed!

Report from Eldey: We headed out and went to all the little islands in front of the harbor, in order to find some cetaceans. We were lucky because it didn´t take us long to find a Humpback Whale. It was calmly swimming in the shallow water, when it suddenly changed it´s course towards us. So we also turned around and accompanied it for a while. It was surfacing quite often and then did a fluke dive, without showing us it´s fluke. Next time he came up he had the same behavior, but this time he granted us a glimse at his beautiful fluke. :) Then he started feeding next time we saw him come up, very energetic surfing the water surface and then being calm again and dove away. But we had to leave anyways, so it was a very great tour !
