Whale Watching in Iceland
Whale watching in Iceland is a top pick among the many tourists that visit the country each year. The cool clear waters of the North Atlantic which encircle Iceland are teeming with Icelandic whales of various types and sizes. The whale watching centers in the North are Dalvik and Húsavík, in the Midwest are Ólafsvík and Stykkishólmur on the Snæfellsnes peninsula, Höfn in the East and Keflavík and Sandgerði in the South West, both only a 30 minute drive from Reykjavík.
Although whale watching in Iceland is a growing industry, it is still far from being over commercialized. Icelandic whale watching tours are generally provided by small private companies which take groups of people out in their own boats. There are no other boats to be seen except those of the local fishermen. Apart from seeing the majestic whales, guests are treated to a variety of sea birds, seals, plus the midnight sun at the right time of year.
