GENTLE GIANTS WHALE WATCHING
Gentle Giants specializes in whale-watching excursions in Húsavík. Their boat tours depart from Húsavík harbor, just below their ticket center. The most common whale species in Skjálfandi Bay are harbor porpoise, white-beaked dolphin, Minke, humpback and blue whales. Gentle Giants also offers extra warm clothing on board their boats, but passengers are advised to bring their own warm, waterproof clothing. In the event of bad weather, excursions may be cancelled or modified for safety reasons. People with reduced mobility can also take part in the excursions; simply contact Gentle Giants in advance to arrange this.

La guide était super!
We were in November so it was really windy and strong waves. But what an experience.
Unfortunately we didnt see any whales but we will come back:) super nice ship workers.
Good instructions. We got suits and a huge raincoat for the ride.
But definitely wear multiple layers!
Booked at short notice whilst in Iceland as original tour we had booked cancelled. Delighted to find that Gentle Giants have a reputation amongst other Icelandic tour operators as being ... 'simply the best Whale watch tour in Iceland' ... period!
They were brilliant!
Wonderful tour guide and skipper, saw many Humpbacks and a Minky. Booking onto a rib boat easily worth the extra money over a slower larger boat ... the skipper got us out quickly (whoop!) and then moved us around ... fast (whoop! again)
Simple to find, easy to get kitted up and get onboard and ... what amazing backdrop scenery!!!
