Set sail on an intimate puffin-watching experience, perfect for bird-watching enthusiasts and novices alike.

This one-hour tour conveniently departs from Reykjavik harbour aboard a charming wooden boat known as “Old Skuli”, and with a 100% viewing guarantee, you won’t leave disappointed! The cruise visits two small islands located in the Reykjavík bay area well known for their colourful birdlife. Upon arrival the engine is turned off so you can observe the variety of Icelandic birds and the beautiful surroundings. The licensed guide will share their knowledge of puffins and other birds of interest that are often seen on the tour, including northern Fulmars, Gulls, Arctic Terns, and Black Guillemots. Binoculars are provided on board.
