Whale Watching Hauganes is a family owned and run company, owned by the same family from the beginning. We are located in North Iceland, only 20 minutes drive north of Akureyri.
We started our scheduled tours during the summer of 1993. Most of the staff on board live in the village of Hauganes, and during the winter the boats are used for fishing, mostly codfish. The captains, therefore, sail in all seasons and are very experienced.
For the past few years the whales have been located in Eyjafjordur bay, only about 10-15 minutes sail from the harbour. We’ve seen whales in over 98% of our journeys since 1993, and in 2017 we saw a whale on every tour, every day. The tours usually take up to 2,5-3 hours in the beautiful Eyjafjordur bay in North Iceland.

Super croisière. Équipage très sympathique… on a même eu le droit aux biscuits café/chocolat. Un vrai réconfort par ce froid.
