Good to know

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.
Oversized luggage, suitcases, or large bags cannot be taken on board for safety purposes.
Smoking is strictly prohibited on the yacht.
