  What is the best time of year to see whales in Reykjavík?

  In short, there is no bad time of year to see whales from Reykjavík, though there is more chance of seeing certain species at certain times.

  In summer, we take advantage of the plentiful daylight with many departures throughout the day. In the darkest winter months, we can only fit in one tour at 13.00 each day.

  The summer months see above a 95% success rate on our tours whereas it drops to around 85% in winter. If you are unlucky and don´t have sightings, you are welcome back for a free make up tour.
