The cool,
clear North Atlantic encircling Iceland is teeming with many
species and sizes of whales. Thousands of tourists enjoy
whale watching from various sites around the country. The
whale watching port in the North is Husavik. Whale watching is also available from
the Reykjavik harbour. Whales are all around the coastline
and, although whale watching in Iceland is growing in
popularity, it is still far from being overly commercial.
It is still an exclusive pastime and mostly done from small craft. The
locations are not crowded and the small group sizes means that these
locations are not swarming with tourists.
There are
typically no other boats except those of local fishermen. Also,
besides sighting the majestic whales, guests are treated to a variety
of sea birds and seals. Weather permitting, you may also catch a
glimpse of the Midnight Sun!
