Check-in and Boarding
Meet our team in our ticket office at the harbour in Akureyri, at least 15 minutes before departure. Our friendly staff will issue your boarding pass and show you to the boat. Proceed to the floating pier to board our state-of-the-art whale watching ship. Our crew will be on hand to guide you aboard and ensure you’re comfortably settled in for the adventure ahead.
Akureyri Classic Whale Watching in the Midnight Sun
Once on board, you can choose to unwind in the heated indoor saloon, where panoramic windows offer stunning views of the fjord. Visit the onboard bar to grab a refreshing drink or a snack, and enjoy the comfortable atmosphere as you prepare for the voyage. For those eager to immerse themselves in the crisp Icelandic air, pick up a complimentary overall to keep warm and step outside to the viewing platforms.
We soon venture into the sun-kissed fjord, in the search for the famous Eyjafjord humpback whales. These gentle giants, along with minke whales, white-beaked dolphins and harbour porpoises, are frequently spotted in our waters. Our expert marine biologists will provide insights into the behaviour of these incredible creatures, enhancing your understanding and appreciation of their natural environment.
As whales never fully sleep, you have the same chance to view them as on our day tours!
Return to harbour
After an exhilarating 2,5-3,5 hr. whale watching under the midnight sun experience, we’ll make our way back to our home base in Akureyri. You can continue to enjoy the views from the deck along the way or relax indoors, reflecting on the unforgettable sights and sounds of the day. Upon arrival back at the floating pier, our crew will assist you with disembarkation. You’ll leave with lasting memories of an extraordinary adventure through one of Iceland’s most beautiful fjords as you head back into town!
