Description
Eyjafjörður creates a magnificent natural stage for whale watching. The crew follows the most promising wildlife areas while the guide interprets every blow, fin and movement across the surface.
A fast, open RIB places a small group close to the water and reaches the wildlife areas quickly, letting you move between the fresh sea air and a warmer space while mountains, quiet fjord settlements and the warm colours of the summer night unfolds around the boat.
The express format combines a thrilling ride with the soft light of the midnight sun, with every departure shaped by the animals, weather and light of the day.
