Elding Adventure at Sea

What you'll do

Experience a premium RIB boat excursion designed to bring you close to the puffins and other seabirds that gather in the waters and on the sea cliffs just outside Reykjavík.


Our custom-made boats combine speed with stability so you can approach islands and rocky outcrops for excellent viewing and photography while remaining comfortable and safe. Guests benefit from unobstructed lines of sight and the thrill of watching puffins in their natural habitat.


Whenever conditions allow, engines are turned off to enjoy the quiet of the sea and to appreciate the birds without disturbance. Throughout the voyage, a knowledgeable naturalist and the captain share insights into bird behaviour, nesting habits and the local marine environment, enhancing your understanding of the wildlife you observe. Commentary is engaging and informative, ideal for both first-time birdwatchers and seasoned enthusiasts.


Operated as a small-group experience, this excursion offers an intimate encounter with the vibrant birdlife of Faxaflói Bay. It is perfect for photographers and nature lovers seeking close-up encounters, memorable sightings and a calm, thoughtful interpretation of the natural world. The focus is on quality wildlife viewing, respectful observation and a memorable time at sea.
