Puffin Party

2 hours and 15 minutes

Easy

Unique tour around Ísafjörður bay where puffins and other wildlife is observed.

This 2 hour 15 minute boat ride takes you into the bay of Ísafjörður exploring wildlife and enjoying great mountain view.  Along the way your guide will tell you about life in the Westfjords and about the amazing bird and marine life.  Our goal is sailing to an abundant Puffin area, exploring puffins on the water, black guillemots and eiders. The tour also takes you through areas where it is very likely to see hump back whales, but we can not guarantee that.  Please note that weather conditions as well as where the puffins are feeding are the factor that decides where we go exactly. we will head to a nearby fjord or close to Vigur island where puffins are abundant and the sea is often considerably calm. The destination largely depends on the weather and sea conditions. Remember to bring a camera, binocular is also very good for looking at the seals (if we go close to the islands) when the tide is low as they sit sunbathing on the rocks. Dress warm.
