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.

We had a truly amazing trip could not fault the organisation or the staff. We were very very lucky with both the weather and our whale sitings...4 at once synchronized swimming and diving. We had the best time thank you

Einmaliges Erlebnis! wir hatten Glück eine kleine Gruppe (12 Besucher) zu sein. Man verträgt den Overall, den man vor Ort bekommt, sehr gut - wir waren über 3 Stunden bei ca 0°C und gutem Wind unterwegs. 7-8 Wale gesichtet und eine sehr symphatische Leiterin und sehr netten Kapitän gehabt, ist den Preis wert!

Unfortunately we didn’t get to experience due to weather, but I feel like they could have handled it better.
First when we booked there were no warnings. Once you book you get an email telling you the sea will be rough and offering only rearranging (not refunding). Then we turn up for the first trip the next day and they say didn’t you get the email which was sent like 10 mins before the arrival time. Only at this point do they offer refund and no apologies for the late notice. If this is how they operate they should keep in mind people may travel far to reach them and 10 mins notice is not enough. At the very least they should cover the price of a drink in the cafe nearby as an apology but nothing other than refund offered.
