Reykjavik · Iceland3 hours
About this experience
A boat leaves Reykjavik harbour for the cold waters of Faxaflói Bay. Watching whales in their natural setting is a wait set to the calm rhythm of the open sea. Sometimes dolphins and seabirds are seen too, though sightings depend on weather and sea conditions.
The recorded duration is 3 hours. The wind on deck is cold, so bring a thick coat, hat and gloves. If you are prone to seasickness, take precautions.
