Puffin Watching Yacht Cruise from Downtown Reykjavík – Small Group Experience
Come aboard on the Axel Rose or Harpa yacht and see the incredible wealth of marine wildlife that lives in the waters just off the shores of Reykjavík City.
On this exciting 1 hour tour around Faxaflói Bay and the islands of Engey, Lundey and Viðey, you’ll have a chance to get up close to colonies of endearing puffins and many other migrating bird species, as well as enjoying the extraordinary backdrop of the majestic Mount Esja and the city’s colourful skyline.
Depending on the time of your visit, the mountains may be capped with ice and snow, or coloured bright purple, covered with a carpet of summer lupins. At any time of the year, Reykjavík is always a stunning city to see from the water. During the summer months, our voyages will pass close to the famous puffin colonies of Faxaflói Bay.
If that is not enough, on this tour, you don’t have to worry about overcrowding or not getting the right spot to see the whales. You will be sailing on Faxaflói bay in a small group which will make your experience personal, meaningful and memorable!
