Join our expert guides Cathy and Alexa on a orca watching and northern lights holiday in Iceland 🐳✨
When vast shoals of overwintering herring gather along the coast of West Iceland’s Snaefellsnes Peninsula, it’s one of the best places for an unforgettable orca watching experience. Based in the colourful fishing town of Stykkisholmur, this small-group holiday led by Wanderlust award-winning guides puts you in prime position for whale watching, enjoying spectacular scenery and, with luck, witnessing the northern lights.
🐳Where is the best place to see orca in Iceland?
During the late winter into spring, the coastal waters of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula are often teeming with herring – a food bounty which can attract large pods of killer whales, dolphins and numerous seabirds.
✨How can I increase my chance of witnessing the northern lights?
You'll be in a prime location for witnessing the northern lights in this rural location, away from the big city lights. If the aurora borealis appears, you may only need to step outside to witness the shimmering curtains of green and white light. Our guides will explain the science behind the magic, and help you capture the phenomenon with your camera.
Speak to our specialists today and start planning your next adventure 🌏💚
