Whale Watching (Optional Sea Angling At End Of Tour)
Watch our whales, and enjoy a little sea angling at the end of the tour! Sea angling is a great sport for groups and team building. The most commonly caught fish on our tours are cod, haddock, pollock and catfish.
What to expect?
-
Enjoy a comfortable tour while observing the fantastic scenery, bird life, and of course the diverse range of whale species of Eyjafjordur. Commonly, we see Humpback Whales, Minke Whales, Harbour Porpoise, and White Beaked Dolphins. If you’re lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of a Killer Whale or a Blue Whale! Enjoy a little sea angling on the return trip, and have your catch filleted to take with you.
-
Each one of our captains spend their winters as professional fishermen, so you can be assured you’re in good hands during the summer season of whale watching. In 2018 we had a 99.5% success rate of spotting whales and expect no less this year (even though we cannot guarantee the same success rate).
