3-hour midnight sun whale watching tour from Akureyri
+3 photos
Seeing the majestic humpback whale by day is one thing, but seeing it under the spectacular midnight sun is another. The sky turns red as you take this fantastic night tour of the mystical Eyjafjord by boat, leading you to enjoy a truly unique whale watching experience.
It may be night time, but whales never fully sleep, so you should still see these enormous animals, along with the smaller minke whale, porpoises and dolphins, all in their natural habitat. After cruising around the Fjord, wildlife spotting, you can relax with a drink and a snack from the onboard bar, as the boat engines are turned off and you fully appreciate the sound of the waves and the birds around you. If beautiful views, nature spotting and a rum-infused hot chocolate in hand sounds good, then this is the tour for you.
Highlights
- Take a boat tour of beautiful Eyjafjord in the midnight sun
- Spot the incredible humpback and minke whales, dolphins and porpoises
- Relax and have a drink whilst taking in the beautiful views from our onboard bar
