Whale Watching in Árskógssandur
Whale Watching Experience
We'll meet at the agreed time at Kaldi Hotel in Árskógssandur, a small fishing village located very close to Akureyri. Once there, we'll climb onboard a traditional Icelandic oak boat ready to set sail.
When we're far enough away from the coast, you'll be able to start enjoying this amazing experience. There is nothing quite like seeing whales in their natural environment and the turquoise waters of Eyjafjörður are the perfect setting for these marine creatures.
While you watch the giant animals in awe, our expert guide will explain more about them, so not only will you see them swim and jump, but you'll also understand why they behave the way they do. Plus, to make this experience even more special, you'll enjoy a hot chocolate accompanied by a cinnamon roll on board. Delicious!
After this once-in-a-lifetime whale-watching experience, we'll sail back to Árskógssandur.
