Experience the sheer magnificence of speeding across the waves of the Atlantic Ocean aboard our powerful, open RIB boat as you embark on the thrilling whale-watching expedition.
We sail from Kópavogur harbor for about 20 minutes, feeling the fresh Icelandic air on our faces. The location where it is very likely to catch a glimpse of whales and/or dolphins is about 10 miles out from the shore.
We spend about 60 minutes searching and preferably admiring those wild animals in their natural environment.
On our way back to the harbor we speed along the cost of Skerjafjörður and into Fossvogur, enjoying the view and listening to music. Out by the golden sanded beach of Nauthólsvík we stop, relax and try a local Icelandic specialty: harðfiskur (dried fish). The dried fish is a healthy snack, rich in protein and nutrients, and a "must try" when in Iceland.
While returning back to the harbor you really get to feel the power of the RIB boat and we aim to make you feel like it is a rollercoaster on the water!!!
Our RIB boat is very well equipped and has seats for maximum 12 passengers. It boasts two 440 horsepower Volvo Penta engines, has powerful stereo system and features padded suspension jockey seats with shock mitigation, ensuring a remarkably smooth and comfortable journey while minimizing the risk of injury by reducing vibrations and impacts.
