Activity description
Embark on a whale-watching excursion to Húsavík, one of the best whale-watching destinations in the world!
Húsavík is a must-see in northern Iceland, especially for marine wildlife watching. The bay is home to minke whales, humpback whales, pods of dolphins and even blue whales!
When you arrive at the meeting point, you'll meet the North Sailing team, who will explain how the activity will work and the safety instructions to be followed.
They will provide you with warm wetsuits and a drink accompanied by a cinnamon bun.
You will then board a traditional Icelandic boat for a 3-hour whale-watching excursion in Húsavík. Your expert guides will be delighted to answer any questions you may have and offer some informative comments about the whales and the bay.
As well as enjoying the whales and other marine life you'll come across on your tour, you'll also have a magnificent view of Skjálfandi, enough to keep your eyes peeled for 3 hours!
