Whale Watching Grundarfjordur
Norðurgarður pier, Norðurgarður, 350 Grundarfjörður, Iceland
Laki Tours offers a unique whale watching tour from Grundarfjordur on the boat Iris from 10th November till 31st March.
Nowhere else in Iceland is there a better chance to see the biggest whales of the ocean, than along the Snaefellsnes Peninsula coastline: Orcas, Sperm, Humpback, Minke and Plot whales plus dolphins and porpoises.
For the past years, the herring have chosen Grundarfjordur and Kolgrafafjordur as their port of call and right behind them are the killer whales.
This phenomenon provides a golden opportunity to see (and hear) the vast number of Orcas swimming in the fjord. It is possible to get right up close with the Laki Tours boat trip to watch the whales and hear them as they blow.
This trip is a perfect opportunity to take unique photographs of these massive mammals enjoying a feast of herring, day after day.
