Absolutely Puffin Great!
With their colourful beaks and playful demeanour, Puffins are often called the 'clown of the sea' and you can see these delightful birds perform, up close and personal, on this charming cruise.
Our guide to Puffin Watching from Reykjavik
With 17 years of operation, this hugely popular one hour tour will get you extra close to one of the world's most loved and most recognisable birds, the puffin.
Setting sail in 'Old Skuli', a specially designed boat, you will visit a collection of nearby islands that are covered with small hills, slopes and cliffs - ideal habitat for an array of seabirds.
Upon arrival, the vessel's engines will be turned off so you can get as close as possible to the many ornithological highlights which include Northern fulmars, gulls, Arctic terns, Black guillemots and of course, the mighty puffin.
With over half of the world's Atlantic Puffin population breeding in Iceland - between 3 to 4 million pairs - don't forget your camera for this fun nature encounter.
Top tip! We recommend a good zoom lens for close-up photography as the puffins are small sized birds.
