Whale Watching Tours departure times :Â
09:00 / 13:00 / 17:00
The Whale Watching tour takes approx. 3-3.5 hours.
A 3-3.5 hour adventure departing from Old harbour. We sail into Faxaflói bay in search of Minke and Humpback whales, Dolphins, Harbour porpoises and Killer whales.
10:00 / 14:00
The Express Whale Watching tour takes approx. 2-2.5 hours.
Provided with the faster boat so the time on the spotting area is the same, just sailing to that point and back to harbour is shorter.

lovely calm water, harbour porpoise jumping out of the water, jelly fish swimming near the boat, minkie whales and humpback whales, Got plenty of pictures, just wish the 6foot plus people would be a little more considerate to children and more vertically challenged adults.

From start to finish the trip was a very relaxed affair…. Having a two and a half year old we were a little nervous how he would be and we weren’t disappointed. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming, the boat (Andrea) gave plenty of comfy seating and a great vantage point inside to see anything, was a massive added bonus to be able to have a hot chocolate and waffles on the way out. Never believed we could be so lucky to see three humpbacks and they were in a very playful mood, as if this wasn’t enough already, we saw plenty of white beaked dolphins who w ere more than willing to pose for the cameras. Couldn’t recommend the trip highly enough.

Great, we saw so many minke whales and dolphins. And the guide was nice, the boat just the right size and the weather lovely. Do bring a good raincoat as you will get wet. It was perfect, recommended for everyone.

Had a great time on this 3 hour tour. Saw a couple of humpback and several minke whales along with several dolphins. Crew was very informative on whales and other wild life and was quick to point out any sightings. Well worth the time. Dress warm!

The chance to see humpback and minke whales and the dolphins up so close was fabulous, recommend the tour to anyone, well guided by Iris. And watching the puffins fly by flapping their wings like crazy is excellent!

Highly recommend! This was easy to find and an enjoyable boat ride! We didn’t see as many whales as we had hoped but the guide was super informative and we learned about the ones we did see! Highly recommend.

Most memorable seeing two Humpback Whales. We also saw a Minke Whale and Harbour Dolphins. Puffins were feeding we didn’t realise how small they are. The Captain and guides were extremely knowledgeable on marine life and the damage pollution is has caused. Would definitely go again

An amazing experience, our guide was extremely knowledgeable, funny and warm. We got to experience an unforgettable sight, humpback whales in their habitat and dolphins.

3,5 horšà on sea, great weather, great captain and guide and really whale show of two young humpback whales, other minkwhales, dolphins and puffins on the way, just awesome!

We were so lucky to see orcas and humpback whales! They explained how they try to find the best spots without using harmful methods such as radar, and the guide was educational and very passionate about the animals. The boat also has a small kitchen where instead of just having pre-packaged snacks, they can cook sandwiches and waffles, which also made the experience very cosy. Would recommend!

Well organised trip and we did manage to see two dolphins, a humpback whale and one Puffin. Shame it was raining, but there's nothing we can do about the weather. But the hot chocolate was excellent as a warming up drink.

The weather was fantastic, not too cold and we actually saw a few whales, it was an unbelievable experience, i'm so glad I did it

It’s always blustery and freezing on the choppy Arctic waters but had a great time- managed to spot a pod of dolphins and a humpback… it was like an audience with an emperor in his kingdom…. The team knew where exactly to get the best experience. Much Recommended
