Overview

Exciting Express Whale Watching Speedboat Tour in a Rib Boat from Dalvik.
Amazing 99% whale, dolphin or seal sighting success.

If you don't see a whale or a dolphin then we will give you another tour for free.

The tour that takes place within the majestic mountains and in the picturesque landscape of Eyjafjordur in North Iceland. The speed gives us an excellent opportunity to go further and sail through a wider area.

Between April 15th and August 15th the puffins are abundant in the fjord and we are likely to see them on our tour.

The thrill of going fast on the water is not to be ignored and you can expect great excitement and a wonderful whale watching adventure. Arctic Sea Tours offer passengers suspension seats, which makes this tour safer and gives you more comfort. They are scientifically proven to provide better Shock Mitigation than any other seats. Suspension seats reduce the risk of injuries and physical fatigue.

Come join us for a recommended whale watching adventure
