About this tour

Experience Grímsey on a guided 2-hour nature tour from Drangsnes.

After a short boat ride across Steingrímsfjörður, we go ashore on Grímsey and walk through part of the island with a local guide. This tour gives guests a real taste of Grímsey’s nature, birdlife and quiet island atmosphere, without committing to the full three-hour walk.

During the summer season, puffins are one of the main highlights, along with other seabirds and coastal scenery. The pace is relaxed, with time to enjoy the surroundings, take photos and learn more about the island and its wildlife.

This is a great choice for most visitors — long enough to feel like a proper island visit, but easy to fit into a travel day.

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.

Highlights

• Guided boat trip from Drangsnes

• Short walk on Grímsey island

• Puffins and seabirds during the summer season
