Hauganes Whale Watching & Sea Angling

Description
Eyjafjörður creates a spectacular natural stage for whale watching. The crew follows the day’s most promising wildlife areas while the guide interprets each blow, fin and movement across the surface.
A spacious and stable Icelandic oak boat brings together excellent outdoor viewing and comfortable time on the water, with high Tröllaskagi mountains, quiet fishing villages and the sheltered waters of North Iceland’s longest fjord unfolding around the boat throughout the journey.
The unhurried voyage combines marine wildlife, local fishing tradition and generous North Iceland hospitality. Every departure has its own rhythm, shaped by the animals, weather and northern light.
