The fjord is full of wildlife. While humpback and minke whales are commonly seen, dolphins and porpoises can also be spotted. On rare occasions, orcas may pass through the area. During the height of summer, puffins are likely to be seen as they nest on nearby Vigur and Aedey islands. Please note that each tour is unique, and sightings may vary.

The boat is manned by a skilled crew and a guide who deeply cares about marine life and protecting Iceland's natural beauty.

One of the tour's goals is to actively aid ongoing research on the whale population in the area. Participants are encouraged to take photographs of the whales' flukes, commonly known as tails, which can be used to identify individual whales. This way, the tour not only provides an opportunity for an exciting whale-watching experience but also contributes to important scientific research efforts.

After a fantastic experience, you'll return to Isafjordur. If you don't see any whales, you'll get another ticket for free, but the fjord is so full of life that this is extremely unlikely.
