Puffin Observation by Boat from Reykjavik Old Harbour

1 hour

Easy

The easiest way to see the Atlantic puffin in its natural environment. We will take you on a thrilling journey to witness adorable puffins in their natural habitat, providing an unforgettable experience of Iceland's coastal beauty.

Embark on an easy-going yet unforgettable adventure that will bring you to observe Iceland’s most iconic seabird: the Atlantic Puffin.

Our crew will take you in only 20 minutes to Lundey, a small, protected island, that is home to thousands of Atlantic Puffins in the summer. Lundey is a nature reserve; while it is not allowed to step foot onto the island, our boat is perfect to approach it. You will get the best possible perspective over this emblematic bird in its most natural habitat.

Our passionate and experienced crew will take you on a journey to meet this iconic seabird and will provide you with binoculars as well as stories only them can tell. Bird enthusiasts will also be happy to observe other spectacular species (guillemots, razorbills, fulmars, eider ducks, cormorants...).

Pure Icelandic experience guaranteed!
