• CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 9:00, 13:00

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

Report from Elding: We sailed out of the harbour with a chill sea and a small breeze. That's how the tour went really, after an hour of searching, a blow was seen! It came from a chill humpback whale that was chilling on the surface of the chill sea. We chilled a little bit with this chill animal, and we saw it go down to chill a few times without any fluke showing. Oh well, we can chill elsewhere! So, we went to chill a bit further south, and we struck the chill luck once more! We found 2 pods of white-beaked dolphins... chilling as well! They swam around us, checking how chill we were and after 20 minutes of chilling eye contact, we went our separate ways. The ride home was chill, of course! :)

Report from Elding: Today was awesome! The weather was mostly sunny, super calm, and the seas were pretty chill. After about an hour of sailing, we spotted 2 humpbacks feeding right next to the boat. We even got to see a small lunge feed, which was super cool! Then, we saw our first minke of the season, and it did a lunge feed too—definitely not something you see every day. Oh, and couple of white beaked dolphins showed up to join the fun, zipping around like they were putting on a show. Such an amazing day out on the water!
