Whale Watching:

We start our trip from a beautiful harbour in the city center and sail out to Kollafjöður, where you can see the island in the bay.

Whale Watching departure at 09:00 & Lava Show at 14:00.
Whale Watching departure at 13:00 & Lava Show at 18:00.

Provided with the faster boat so the time on the spotting area is the same, just sailing to that point and back to harbour is shorter.
