Tour Details

Set sail on an unforgettable journey across the shimmering waters of Faxaflói Bay, where the thrill of the ocean meets the serenity of nature. As your boat cuts through the gentle waves, the air is filled with anticipation and the salty tang of the sea. Suddenly, the surface breaks with a splash, and a pod of white-beaked dolphins dances alongside, their sleek bodies gliding effortlessly through the water. The excitement builds as a curious minke whale emerges, its massive form gracefully breaching the surface, casting a spell of wonder over all who witness its majesty.

This is just the beginning. The bay is a vibrant theater of marine life, where humpback whales perform their acrobatic displays and harbor porpoises dart playfully beneath the waves. Your expert guides, passionate about the ocean's secrets, share fascinating insights into the lives of these magnificent creatures, enriching your experience with stories and facts that bring the marine world to life.

After the awe-inspiring spectacle of whale watching, the adventure takes a new turn. Swap your binoculars for a fishing rod as you step aboard the well-equipped sea angling boat, Rósin. Here, the thrill of the catch awaits, whether you're a seasoned angler or a novice eager to try your hand at fishing. Feel the gentle tug of the line, the anticipation as you reel in your catch, all while surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Icelandic seascape.

Choose between the leisurely CLASSIC tour, where the pace is relaxed and the focus is on education and family-friendly fun, or the swift EXPRESS tour, designed to whisk you quickly to the heart of the whale-watching action. Both options promise a return to the harbor by late afternoon, just in time to embark on your fishing adventure.

Enhance your journey with the Special Tours Iceland app, available in five languages, offering a rich tapestry of text and audio information to deepen your understanding and appreciation of this extraordinary wildlife adventure. As the sun dips towards the horizon, casting a golden glow over the bay, you'll carry with you memories of a day filled with wonder, discovery, and the timeless allure of the sea.
