This is your chance to see the incredible whales of Eyjafjörður in their natural habitat!

Our specially trained whale watching guides are experts at locating them and will tell you all about the wildlife, nature, and the Eyjafjörður area.

We set sail from the port of Akureyri towards the picturesque waters of Eyjafjörður, one of Iceland’s most sheltered fjords and a fantastic area for whale watching. On this 2.5 to 3.5-hour excursion, you can enjoy stunning landscapes and search for the majestic marine wildlife of northern Iceland, including humpback whales, minke whales, harbor porpoises, and white-beaked dolphins. Our expert guides will share fascinating facts and help you spot whales from the decks.

After an unforgettable adventure at sea, we return to the port.

We hope your experience with us leaves you with unforgettable memories of the impressive wildlife and natural beauty of Akureyri!
