This is your chance to explore the wildlife at sea in this express, small groups whale watching tour. The specially engineered RIB boats get you closer and faster to the whales and puffins than the traditional bigger and slower boats.

This fantastic whale watching tour starts from the Old Harbour in downtown Reykjavik. First we ride out to the islands and see the puffins (season 15 May – 15 August) in their natural surroundings. Next we head out further in search of the whales. Seeing the whales and dolphins as up close as you can from our RIB boats is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. After our whale tour we sail back to Reykjavík, where we will take ride along the cities shore line, viewing it from the ocean. Including a stop at the harbour side of Iceland´s most famous building, the mesmerizing Harpa Concert Hall.
