Your Iceland boat tour begins at Djupivogur Port, a beautiful harbor that reflects the town’s deep connection to the sea. Known for its laid-back charm and creative spirit, Djupivogur is a member of the international Cittaslow movement, which celebrates quality of life and sustainable living.
Colorful boats bob in the harbor, and the surrounding mountains frame the coastline in breathtaking views. It’s a fitting gateway to your Eastfjords adventure.
You’ll board a small boat and meet your guide at the harbor. This friendly guide will keep your adventure safe and enrich your experience with stories about the region.
As you glide across the sheltered waters of Djupivogur and the Berufjordur Fjord, keep your eyes peeled for the rich wildlife of the Eastfjords. Seals are often seen basking on rocky outcrops, puffins darting over the waves, and seabirds nesting along the cliff faces.
In summer, the area comes alive with rich birdlife, and lucky guests might even spot dolphins or whales passing through the fjord under favorable conditions. Your guide knows these waters inside out and will guide you to the best vantage points for wildlife viewing and photography.
Beyond the nature immersion, the tour is a journey into the heritage of Djupivogur and its surrounding fjord. Your guide will share stories about the fishing traditions that have sustained this community for centuries and the geological forces that shaped the dramatic coastline.
You’ll pass remote coves, volcanic headlands, and unspoiled beaches that few visitors ever see. These breathtaking coastal sights make this an unforgettable way to connect with East Iceland’s raw beauty.
Comfort and safety are a priority on board. Life jackets and warm flotation suits are provided to keep you secure and comfortable in the North Atlantic air. The small vessel is ideal for navigating close to shore, allowing you to experience the region’s landscapes and wildlife from a unique perspective.
The tour operates in most weather conditions, but Iceland’s coastal climate can be unpredictable. To make the most of your trip, bring warm layers, a windproof jacket, gloves, and a hat.
Sunglasses, a camera, and binoculars are also recommended for spotting wildlife and capturing the incredible views.
This boat tour in East Iceland finishes back at the port of Djupivogur, where you can continue exploring the rest of the town or the region independently.
Whether you’re traveling solo, as a family, or in a small group of up to six, this 2-hour boat tour is a perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and discovery.
