We have been observing whales since 2009.
Beginning in 2009 with a small oak boat accommodating 15 passengers, we now operate two oak boats with capacities of 60 and 42 passengers, along with two fast RIB boats for 12 passengers each. We eagerly anticipate welcoming you on board and feel as though we are embarking on a new adventure with every whale watching tour.

Arctic Sea Tours is located in Dalvík, a seaside town in the North of Iceland. Our ticket office is located conveniently on Hafnarbraut 22 just above the harbour, next to the N1 gas station.

Whale watching in Iceland reaches its peak in Dalvík, a gem in North Iceland where the whales of Iceland thrive. The sheltered Eyjafjörður fjord, known for its deep volcanic fissures and natural geothermal activity, creates rich feeding grounds for marine life. Here, the mixing of warm and cold Arctic currents fuels an explosion of zooplankton and krill, which attracts many species — especially the magnificent humpback whales of Iceland.

Thanks to these ideal feeding conditions, Dalvík whale watching offers some of the highest sighting success rates in the world — over 98% year-round and more than 99% in summer! Whether you're an enthusiast seeking Arctic adventures or simply dreaming of watching whales up close, Dalvík is truly one of the best places for whale watching in Iceland.
