GENTLE GIANTS WHALE WATCHING
Gentle Giants es una empresa especializada en excursiones de avistamiento de ballenas en Húsavík. Sus excursiones en barco salen del puerto de Húsavík, justo debajo de su centro de venta de billetes. Las especies de ballenas más comunes en la bahía de Skjálfandi son la marsopa común, el delfín de pico blanco, el rorcual aliblanco, la ballena jorobada y la ballena azul.

Las personas con movilidad reducida también pueden participar en las excursiones, sólo tienen que ponerse en contacto con Gentle Giants con antelación para organizarlo.
I enjoy nights in Brixton, Shoreditch in the afternoon
We were lucky to have only 6 other people with us that day, so it felt like private tour.
Our guide was Miro, he did fantastic job.
I have to say we got really lucky with weather, it was warm, absolutely no wind and we have seen so many whales I forgot the count!
They give you overall and heavy raincoat, so you don't have to worry about being wet. The only recommendation-wear more socks. I wore just one thick pair with winter boots and that was the only part of my body that was cold from time to time, as you just stand there doing nothing. Wear as many pairs as you can fit ????
The other tour provider (who pops first on google when you search for whale watching) had full boat of tourists and they came after us, so we always did get better view! Go with Gentle giants, you won't regret it.
(Photos are not of high quality, it's just my phone, whales were closer than it looks)
