Status: RUNNING FROM ANOTHER HARBOUR

We will be sailing out from HAFNARFJÖRDUR today at 13:00 due to unfavourable conditions out of Reykjavík. A bus will be ready and waiting for passengers here in the Old Harbour and drive off to Hafnarfjördur at the scheduled departure time. After the tour we will return to Reykjavík by bus again, or the boat will sail to Reykjavík. For more information please contact us by email elding@elding.is or by phone +354 519 5000.

Tour at 13:00

Report from Eldey: The tour proceeded from Hafnafjördur today as there was a strong south westerly wind blowing which would have made leaving from Reykjavik uncomfortable. We sailed into the waves on the way out, meaning the ride was a little bumpy but very smooth on the return with the waves at our back. We searched a large area in order to find some cetaceans but we were unsuccessful in our attempt today. Complimentary tickets were therefore issued.
