Experience The Magical Midnight Sun While Watching Whales In The Beautiful Waters Of Faxaflói Bay


Experience a truly unique whale watching adventure under the magical summer sun and the everlasting daylight of the Icelandic midnight sun. This special evening cruise is available from mid-June through August, offering a different perspective on the local marine life. Meet us at our ticket office in the Old Harbour in downtown Reykjavík to begin your journey. Our staff will guide you through our floating wildlife exhibition, providing context for the animals you are about to see.


Before the tour, enjoy an onboard multimedia show featuring images, videos, and facts about the whales and marine life of the region. Once we head out, we can expect to see minke whales, white-beaked dolphins, harbour porpoises, and even humpback whales. The mystical midnight sun often casts a beautiful orange and pink glow over the mountains surrounding the bay, creating a stunning and serene atmosphere that is perfect for photography and quiet reflection on the water.


To enhance the experience, we often shut off the boat engines to enjoy the soothing sounds of the water, the whales, and the birds to the fullest. This quiet approach allows for a more intimate encounter with the wildlife, as the natural sounds of the bay take center stage. With the added feature of mellow music played on the way back to port, the tour is ideal for those seeking a relaxing and atmospheric evening at sea.


This evening cruise is a perfect way to make the most of the long summer days in Iceland. The combination of the unique lighting, the active marine life, and the peaceful atmosphere makes it a highlight for any traveler. Whether you are a wildlife enthusiast or simply looking for a memorable way to spend an evening in Reykjavík, this midnight sun whale watching tour offers an unforgettable experience that captures the true essence of the Icelandic summer.
