GG1 Walbeobachtung

The traditional whale watching tour from Húsavík is a unique adventure at sea which has given our hometown the reputation as the Whale Capital of Iceland. After you have been equipped with a warm safety overall, sail out into the bay on a comfortable oak boat and prepare to be captivated by nature. Your specialized wildlife guide will demonstrate the safety on board and give you live commentary on the sights encountered throughout the tour. Your oak boat has been thoroughly renovated as a safe passenger vessel and plays an important role in Iceland’s maritime history and culture.

Skjálfandi Bay is well known for its rich wildlife. Numerous types, shapes and sizes of whales visit the bay, including the acrobatic humpback whales and playful white-beaked dolphins. This is wild nature and unpredictable, but your chances of seeing whales in their natural environment are high.

You will get warm safety overalls before your tour but it is highly recommended to bring own warm and waterproof clothes, footwear and protective bags for cameras as it can be cold and wet out at sea.
