Your adventure begins with a convenient optional pick-up from select locations in Reykjavik, where you’ll meet your friendly guide and head to the harbor. The short journey builds anticipation as you approach the waterfront.
At the harbor, you are given a warm fleece undersuit and a waterproof drysuit to keep you comfortable and dry no matter the weather.
Before setting off, your guide gives a clear safety briefing and shows you how to operate the jet ski. The instructions are simple to follow, so even first-time riders feel confident and ready. Soon, you ease out into the water, the engine humming beneath you as the city slips into the distance.
Riding along the coastline, you feel the cool spray of the North Atlantic on your face and the rush of fresh sea air. The skyline of Reykjavik unfolds from a new angle, its colorful buildings standing out against the deep blue water. In the distance, mountains rise along the horizon, while the open ocean stretches endlessly ahead.
The highlight comes when you slow down near Puffin Island, a nesting ground for these small seabirds during summer. Binoculars let you see them up close as they flap their wings, dive gracefully into the sea, and skim across the surface.
You take in the moment fully, watching the puffins in their natural home while hearing their calls mix with the soft splash of waves along the shore. Meanwhile, your guide captures photos so you can focus on the experience without worrying about missing the perfect shot.
After spending time with these remarkable birds, you turn back toward Reykjavik. The ride back offers one last chance to take in the sweeping coastal views, the changing light over the city, and the open water all around.
Back at the harbor, you return your gear and meet your transfer, ending your 2-hour puffin tour with memories of Iceland’s wildlife and scenery from a perspective few get to experience.
