100% SIGHTING SUCCESS
since 15 May 2016
Whale Watching Akureyri started operating in early 2016. From the start our emphasis has been on whale friendly whale watching and by following IceWhales' Code of Conduct we strive to safely show our passengers the whales of Iceland in their natural habitat, without disturbing them and negatively effecting the environment.
We offer whale watching tours year round among other seasonal tours, such as the Northern Lights Cruise, in winter. Our fleet has two fundamentally different vessels and thus, tours to choose from. We recommend the Classic tour for a relaxing, family friendly experience and the Express tour for a more thrilling ride.
