The classic puffin tours are intimate, fun, and a comfortable adventure on a small boat! Here is your chance to experience the 'clowns of the sea' in their natural environment. One of the expert guides will meet you on board one of the comfortable and stable boats, docked at the floating pier in front of the Wildlife Exhibition. Depending on the tides and conditions on the islands the captains will take you to either Engey, Akurey, or Lundey, one of three islands well known for their plentiful birdlife. People cannot go on the islands, but they will try and get as close as possible without disturbing the nesting birds. In addition to puffins, you have the opportunity to view other birds such as eider ducks, arctic terns, guillemots, and cormorants. The island's shores are rocky but the captains know the best spots to get close to the puffins without disturbing any natural behavior. During the tour, the crew will tell you interesting facts and tales about the puffins and the surroundings.
