About this activity
Set out from Reykjavík's downtown harbour on a 3.5-hour guided boat tour designed to spot whales and marine life in Iceland's coastal waters. Year-round operations mean sightings are possible any season, though spring through autumn offer peak opportunities to encounter minke, humpback, and killer whales alongside dolphins and porpoises.
Experience the best Iceland has to offer with spectacular whale watching opportunities.
Our tours are a unique experience and we do our best to make this a lifetime experience for you.
All the year around you'll be able to see a variety of whales by the coast, from the Minke, Humpback, and Killer whales to White Beaked Dolphins and Harbour Porpoises.
