We start the tour by sailing to Puffin Island, located only a short distance out of Húsavík. Over the summer, Puffin Island is bustling with life, with over 100,000 Puffins staying in the colony every year. Watching these funny little birds nesting, flying around and diving for food ​is very entertaining. Especially kids love the unique clumsy flying style! The wooden boats sail around the island, giving you a good time to observe the diverse birdlife. The crew onboard has extensive knowledge of local birds and wildlife, and they're happy to share their wisdom with passengers.

The puffins arrive in the middle of April every year and stay until the end of August. It is also interesting that 60% of the worlds puffins breed in Iceland, so you are in the right place to see these amusing birds.

Next, we will head out to the whale watching area and spend the rest of the tour with the whales. Many whales visit the Bay every year to feed in the nutritious waters. Getting close to these remarkable animals is an experience one can hardly put into words.

Our crew will serve you some hot chocolate and cinnamon cookies to round up the tour on the way back to Húsavík.
