3-Day Kayaking and Camping Adventure in the Westfjords

On the second day of your kayaking trip in the Westfjords, you’ll have a hearty breakfast, get dressed, and take back to the seas. You’ll spend a short while paddling through still seas, admiring your surroundings, and listening out to the commentary of your guides until you reach the island of Vigur.

Vigur may be small, but it is a haven for thousands of seabirds of many species that nest here during the summer. You’ll admire them from the water, with your guide explaining what life is like on the island, before continuing on your journey.

The next leg of your journey will take you to another fantastic place for wildlife - the Hvitanes Peninsula. This area has an enormous seal colony that can reliably be seen hauling out on the rocky outcrops, splashing around in the shallows, and bobbing further out to sea. Some may even be a little curious of you and approach your kayak for a closer look!

After your time here, you’ll paddle back to camp for another lovely meal and rest.

The third day of your kayaking adventure will have you return to Isafjordur; however, the journey back is spectacular, with many highlights to see. You’ll get to marvel over the dramatic Kambsnes Peninsula, the gorgeous village of Sudavik, and the tall cliffs of the Isafjordardjup fjord. Keep your eyes on the surface of the seas for your last chance of seeing whales, dolphins, and seals as you paddle!

Once you’re back in the capital of the Westfjords, you’ll return your equipment in time to enjoy your evening reminiscing over your fantastic trip!
