“The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.”
Ahoy, and welcome aboard
I am glad you found us. Here in the peaceful harbor of Hjalteyri, we head out to sea, searching for whales, fresh air, and quiet moments you will remember long after your feet are back on land.
This is not a crowded rush from one sight to the next. This is a smaller, warmer journey, guided by people who know these waters well and love sharing them with others.
Our goal is to experience whales in a responsible way, with respect for them and for the marine life that surrounds them.
A Personal Whale Watching Experience
From Hjalteyri, we sail into Eyjafjörður, one of North Iceland’s most beautiful fjords.
These waters are calm, rich with life, and well known for whale watching.
On board, you will find:
-
Small groups and plenty of space
-
A family-run boat with a personal touch
-
A local captain with years of experience at sea
-
A professional guide sharing stories and facts along the way
-
Hot chocolate, coffee, and tea to keep you warm
Whether it is your first time seeing a whale or your tenth, every trip out on the fjord brings its own kind of wonder.
Why choose us?
As a small, family-run business, we are dedicated to creating a truly memorable whale watching experience for every guest.
With years of experience at sea and a deep passion for marine life, our team is committed to finding and respectfully observing whales in the pristine waters of Eyjafjörður. Departing from the quiet harbour of Hjalteyri, we benefit from quick access to some of the richest feeding grounds in the fjord, shaped by unique underwater conditions that attract marine life and, in turn, whales.
Whale watching is more than what we do. It is part of who we are, shaped by generations connected to the ocean.
