What to bring

• Layer up and carry a windproof, waterproof jacket. Once you leave Reykjavík’s shoreline, the chill over Faxaflói Bay can feel more intense.

• Choose sturdy, non-slip shoes to stay steady while moving around the deck.

• Pack a warm hat, gloves, and a scarf—conditions out at sea often dip a few degrees below city temperatures.

• Bring a camera or binoculars so you can fully enjoy any close encounters with whales or passing seabirds.

What’s not allowed

• Oversized luggage, suitcases, or large bags cannot be taken on board for safety purposes.

• Smoking is strictly prohibited on the yacht.

• Flash photography is discouraged to avoid disturbing the wildlife.

• Only registered service animals are permitted; all other pets must stay ashore.

Accessibility
