The local bird life is also diverse, including such birds as the Puffin, Arctic tern, Gannet and many species of gulls.
Two types of whale watching adventure are offered to suit everyone's needs:
Whale Watching Express
On a fast and luxurious boat, Rosin, you will get to the whale watching grounds in only 20-30 minutes - less time travelling more time whale watching. Built especially for whale watching with a high cruising speed, great fun for the adventurous! The tour has a very personal feeling as it is smaller than the usual whale watching boats. It is perfect for those who want to fit many things in their tight schedule.
Whale Watching Classic
All aboard the biggest whale watching boat in Iceland and due to its size it is very stable out on the sea. Fantastic inside and outside areas with plenty of space for everyone, and a café and a souvenir shop on board. This tour has an educational and interactive focus, which means that you get to see and feel objects such as whale teeth and bones and baleen plates. You will also see specimens taken out straight from the ocean.
