North Sailing

North Sailing was the first company in Iceland to organize and offer regular whale watching tours, and is currently the most experienced whale watching company in Iceland, having carried more than 300.000 visitors in 8000 tours. The staff is highly experienced and all of the boats are traditional wooden fishing boats that have been carefully restored and adapted to their new role, without compromising their original character. North Sailing has always been a family company, owned and run by three generations within the family.

In 1994, brothers Arni and Hordur founded North Sailing, and started providing regular whale- and nature watching in Skjalfandi Bay a year later. The tours quickly became very popular, with the number of passengers growing from 1.700 to 12.000 a year from 1995-1998. They bought more boats and expanded their business over the years, and today they have six boats, a restaurant (Gamli Baukur), a café (Skuld Café) and offer extremely popular whale and puffin watching tours in Skjalfandi Bay. The number of passengers per year had reached over 20.000 by the millenium, and it's still growing fast.
