Whale Watching by Day and Northern Lights by Sea from Reykjavík
Two sailings from the same harbour, sold as one. The daytime boat heads into Faxaflói bay after minke and humpback whales, dolphins, harbour porpoises and killer whales, with the mountains and islands around Reykjavik on every side and plenty of birdlife working the water. On board there are warm overalls, heated indoor cabins with room to move, a bar and free WiFi. Then time ashore to dry off and eat before the second half. Watching the aurora from the sea is a different proposition to watching it from a lay-by: no headlights, no roads, nothing between the boat and the horizon. The overalls come out again, and there are snacks and refreshments on board while the sky is working.
