About this experience
Whale Watching tour from Akureyri Port is an exciting and family friendly adventure from cruise ship port. We offer door to door pickup from cruise to the whale watching harbor at Hauganes Village. The transfer has free wifi and is in a comfortable bus or minibus, depending on number of passengers booked.
The Whale watching company is with a family company located in Hauganes, the first whale watching company in Iceland, and still operated by the founders. Years of experience, passion and deep knowledge of the wildlife found in Eyjafjörður fjord set them apart from other companies.
In the fjord you find many species of whales, the main being the magnificent Humpback Whale. We also find dolphins, porpoises, minke whales and occasionally we spot orcas and blue whales.
