Puffin Watching and Gufufoss Waterfall Tour from Seydisfjordur

Overview

Our Puffin and Waterfall Shore Excursion from Seyðisfjörður highlights both the wildlife and the natural beauty of this remote eastern region. Enjoy an up-close encounter with nesting Atlantic Puffins, explore quaint Icelandic fishing villages, and witness the stark beauty of Gúfufoss waterfall. All in just 5 hours. Borgarfjörður-Eystri is a remote coastal village. Life here centers around the harbour and see. Hafnarhólmi is a small and easily accessible islet connected to the mainland by a man made harbour. Its cliffs are widely held to be one of the worlds premier puffin-watching paradises. Next explore the charms of this cute little village. Lindarbakki turf house is an example of how Icelanders lived as late as the early 20th century. In pristine condition, one sees how Icelanders used thick turf walls to insulate their homes from the harsh climate. Finally we visit Gufufoss, a remote waterfall whose waters cascade down a rugged cliffside, filling the air with a fine mist.
