Enjoy a magical journey into Faxaflói Bay with an expert crew member and specially trained naturalists. Explore the whales of Reykjavík under the excellent guidance of the marine biologist guides and learn all about the incredible wildlife that calls Iceland their home. The bay is even full of birdlife, from puffins and gannets to guillemots and more, that actively feed on the plentiful fish found in the bay. Magnificent landscapes surround the area and add a unique contrast to the vast ocean, where the spectacular views on the horizon are certainly not to be missed. The most common whale species encountered on the tours are the minke whales, humpback whales, white-beaked dolphins, and harbour porpoises. The whales are most abundant in summer, giving you a great chance to enjoy and understand them in their natural environment. Each year continues to surprise, however with the variety of whales seen in winter, and as research shows, more and more whales are staying in the area all year round!
