Grímsey Puffin Walk

Join us for our most complete Grímsey experience — a guided boat trip and island walk from Drangsnes to Grímsey on Steingrímsfjörður.

After a short boat ride from Drangsnes, we go ashore on Grímsey and explore the island on foot with a local guide. The tour focuses on the island’s rich birdlife, beautiful coastal scenery and peaceful nature. During the summer season, Grímsey is especially known for its puffins, and guests will have the opportunity to visit and view the puffin colony from a respectful distance.

Along the way, your guide will share stories about the island, its nature, birdlife and local surroundings. This is a relaxed nature experience, ideal for travellers who want to take their time, enjoy the scenery and experience one of the most memorable wildlife tours in the Westfjords.

This tour is our best choice for nature lovers, photographers and guests who want the full Grímsey experience.

Please note: Wildlife sightings depend on nature and cannot be guaranteed. All tours are subject to weather and sea conditions. In case the tour is cancelled by the operator, e.g. due to bad weather, the ticket is always refunded fully.
