This is a great evening boat trip from the old harbor in Reykjavik. Chasing the northern lights on the gentle waves of the sea is an incredible experience. Sailing away from Reykjavik's coastline, and experiencing the aurora borealis in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, with absolutely the most beautiful mountains, and Reykjavik itself on the horizon. This is an experience that will be something you will definitely never forget. Fantastic winter excursion from Reykjavik.
It only takes 15-20 min to sail out into the dark and away from the city's many lights. Here we will find a perfect location where the conditions are best to see the incredible northern lights in the magical night sky. Here you will also experience a soothing silence at sea.
On the tour, our guides will tell you everything there is to know about the Northern Lights, here both the scientific explanations, but also myths and stories from different cultures come to life. The guides are always ready to answer your questions.
However, this trip is weather dependent and unfortunately the Icelandic weather is not always cooperative. We can therefore not guarantee that it is possible to see the northern lights. If it should be the case that you do not see the northern lights on the trip, you will be offered to participate in the trip again another day, at no extra cost.
Our boats are spacious and have a warm indoor area where you will find a bar where you can buy refreshments. On the deck there is enough space for everyone who wants to stand here and be enchanted by the beautiful northern lights. We offer warm overalls that can keep you warm on a cold winter evening.
