Between mid-April and mid-August, you can combine whale watching in Skjalfandi Bay with a visit to Puffin Island – home to over 100,000 of the endearing seabirds during their nesting season. This 3½-hour tour is a must for keen photographers.
Húsavik is renowned throughout the whole of Europe for its whale watching opportunities. Encounter some of the largest sea creatures in the world along with migratory birds such as puffins.
Set sail out of the harbour on a traditional Icelandic oak boat for a whale watching trip around Skjálfandi bay, which offers the possibility of sighting a variety of whales and dolphins. During your time at sea you will also get go past puffin island, where you will be able to see these intriguing migratory birds. This will all be in the company of an expert guide and whilst you sail back enjoy a cup of hot chocolate and traditional Icelandic scones.
It’s not just about where you go, but how you experience it. I’m here to turn that trip into an adventure you’ll cherish.
