Go whale watching with Elding
Old Harbour and Faxaflói, Iceland
Elding’s whale-watching trips leave from Reykjavík’s Old Harbour for the waters of Faxaflói, combining time at sea with guidance on the wildlife encountered. Boats have indoor seating as well as viewing areas, and passengers can visit the company’s Whale Watching Centre before or after the trip. Each sailing is different, so go for the experience of looking and learning rather than a promised sighting. It offers a useful change of pace from the city’s museums and streets.
