A private speedboat charter through the islands of Breiðafjörður Bay, hunting for white-tailed eagles, seals, and puffins in one of Iceland's richest and least-visited marine ecosystems.
What to expect
You board a small, fast RIB directly from Stykkishólmur harbor with a skipper who knows the bay's roughly 3,000 islands intimately. The boat weaves between skerries where white-tailed eagles nest, cuts engines near seal colonies, and — in season — passes puffin cliffs. The bay's tidal extremes and shifting light make every run different, and a private charter lets you extend time wherever wildlife appears.
Good to know
Best visibility and calmest seas are typically mid-morning; dress warmly even in summer as spray off the RIB is cold. Book several days ahead, as private charters are limited.
