Go whale watching

Go whale watching

The cold and deep waters of the northern Atlantic Ocean that encircles Iceland are the perfect conditions for many species of whale. Go on a whale watching trip from Faxafloi Bay and you'll have a good chance of spotting these graceful creatures, with grey, minke and pilot whales often visiting.
