Description
Puffin and birdwatching from a boat is a fun and educational activity when visiting Iceland. Summer is the best time to experience the birds and wildlife at the bay and islands outside Reykjavík.
The puffin islands are small islands located in the bay outside of Reykjavík. It ́s only 15 minutes sailing from Reykjavík Old Harbor, from where we depart. Atlantic Puffins are the most common bird in Iceland (about 3.3 million birds) and have colonized the off-shore islands.
The fishing boat only takes a maximum of 38 passengers on a tour and therefore we provide a more personal service than other similar tours. There's plenty of space and good viewpoints for all our passengers. These are the best seats! We provide excellent binoculars but don't forget to bring your camera.
