Whale Watching (Old Harbour Tours)

Embark on an unforgettable journey from Reykjavík's Old Harbour to experience the majestic marine life of Faxaflói Bay. These tours offer a chance to spot various species including minke whales, humpback whales, white-beaked dolphins, and harbour porpoises, depending on the season. The experienced guides provide insightful commentary on the local wildlife and the natural history of the bay. Binoculars are often available, and warm overalls are usually provided for comfort against the ocean breeze. While sightings are common, they are never guaranteed, as these are wild animals in their natural habitat. Beyond the whales and dolphins, the tours also offer opportunities to observe a rich variety of seabirds, including puffins in season, adding to the comprehensive wildlife experience.
