Gentle Giants - Whale Watching tours - North East Iceland
Húsavík Harbour, 640 Húsavík
Region:
North East
Opening Hours:
May - October
About: (Description)
In 2001 eleven individuals from Húsavík with a vast experience of running companies in various fields of activity and business, decided to establish a new company in the tourist and travelling industry in Husavik. An old wooden oak-boat, which had originally been built as a fishing- and whale hunting boat, was renewed and restored for the purpose of sailing with visitors around the Skjálfandi Bay, searching for whales, not for hunting but watching. A lot of effort was put into the company and it became a great success among our visitors. Ever since then, Gentle Giants has had a great staff to rely on and its amount of customers has been rapidly increasing, year by year.
How to get there:
Take road no. 1 from Akureyri to exit to road no. 85 to Húsavík. Húsavík is about 45 km from that exit by road no. 85
