Whales are beautiful animals and one of nature’s most extraordinary sights. The experienced guides on board will share with you their wealth of knowledge on the whales, as well as passing on some interesting facts and old sea stories about encounters with these magnificent creatures. The whales round these parts are not shy, often surfacing quite close to the boat, and, as our sea-fairing guides will tell you, to see a whale up close truly is a sight to remember. There is over 90% viewing success (if you are in the unlucky few percent, you get another tour for free). 

In the late evening, you will be picked up from your hotel, and the road leads to Reykjanes Peninsula, a rugged area of incredible beauty and unique landscape. The first stop is at Vitinn, seafood restaurant in the small fishing village of Sandgerdi at the tip of the peninsula (about 50 km from Reykjavik), to enjoy Grand Crab & Shellfish Feast.  After dining, descend into the dark night, hunting for the Northern Lights. The northern lights are a natural phenomenon and sightings can never be guaranteed.  However, we can guarantee you a mouth-watering meal and a fun ride.
