Reykjavík Classic Whale Watching

A Captivating Journey into Faxaflói Bay

Reykjavík Classic Whale Watching: Enjoy a magical journey into Faxaflói bay with our expert crew and specially trained naturalists. Explore the whales of Reykjavík under the excellent guidance of our marine biologist guides and learn all about the incredible wildlife that call Iceland their home.

Spectacular Wildlife and Magnificent Landscapes

The bay is even full of birdlife, from puffins and gannets to guillemots and more, that actively feed on the plentiful fish found in the bay. Magnificent landscapes surround the area and add a unique contrast to the vast ocean, where the spectacular views on the horizon are certainly not to be missed.

The Exciting Whale Watching Experience

Meet us at our ticket office where you will exchange your pre-paid voucher for boarding tickets. A few steps down the pier you will find our Visitor Centre, facilitated on board a converted fishing vessel permanently placed by the pier. This is where you will meet the crew.

Exploring the Wildlife Exhibition and Boarding the Boat

Head downstairs to the hull of the boat and stroll through our unique floating wildlife exhibition to learn more about the animals we may come across on our tours. You board the whale watching boat through the Visitor Centre, where you will find several outdoor viewing platforms, a heated indoor saloon with large viewing windows, a cafeteria, toilet facilities, and a cloakroom where you can borrow our blankets and overalls for the duration of the tour.

Informative Commentary and Whale Sightings

One of our excellent naturalists will give a live commentary throughout the tour and notify you of any sightings as we go. The most common whale species encountered on our tours are the minke whales, humpback whales, white-beaked dolphins, and harbour porpoises. Occasionally we see other species such as killer whales, fin whales, sei whales, and long-finned pilot whales, however, they are not as common.

Year-Round Whale Encounters and Combo Tours

The whales are most abundant in summer, giving us a great chance to enjoy and understand them in their natural environment. Each year continues to surprise us, however, with the variety of whales we see in winter, and as our research shows, more and more whales are staying in the area all year round! Combine this activity with Puffin Watching in the summer or with a Northern Lights Cruise in winter! You can also check out some of the other combo tours we have put together!

  • This is the original whale watching tour from Reykjavík and one of the most popular attractions in Iceland! Join us for a chance to encounter the incredible whales and dolphins of Faxaflói bay.

    As the weather in Iceland can be quite unpredictable, we advise you that this tour is weather dependent. In case of unfavourable conditions in the bay, the itinerary may be altered (often resulting in a slightly longer tour) or the tour could get cancelled altogether. You will be notified of any changes as soon as possible, but we suggest that you have a look at our online whale diary to check for updates on your departure.

    Since this is a wildlife tour we can never predict or guarantee sightings of any kind. Additionally, abide by a Code of Conduct for responsible whale watching and thus each encounter is on the animal's terms. This means that we may manoeuvre the boat in a certain way or keep our distance to minimise potential disturbance. In the event that we don't encounter any whales or dolphins, we do not offer refunds, but instead give our passengers a complimentary ticket to use another day.

  • Sturdy footwear
  • Hat
  • Gloves
  • Scarf
