The experience
Search for whales by the light of the midnight sun
As the sun sets, and the engine of your RIB hums along with the sounds of sea birds, a sense of adventure fills you and your small group of fellow whale watchers. Set sail from Iceland's second-largest city, Akureyri, and keep your eyes peeled for signs of breaching humpback whales.
Your nimble ship is fast enough to follow any whales that you might spot, and with the chilly Nordic air and the chance to see underwater giants, you're in for an unforgettable evening.
