Why it's on Icebreaker

Reykjavík Jet Skis

Reykjavík Jet Skis works out of Gufunes, where you are zipped into a fleece undersuit and a full drysuit, handed a helmet, gloves and a safety briefing, and sent onto the bay with a guide close by. The standard two-hour tour, about an hour of it riding, heads for Lundey, where puffins spend the summer from May to late August, and then Viðey. Binoculars are provided, puffins being small and jet skis not being subtle. There is a sunset version of the same route, and a three-hour Adventure tour on Sea-Doos that takes in Viðey, Harpa and the Sun Voyager. You can ride solo or double up; minimum ages run from 7 to 12 depending on the tour. Bring dry socks and a towel. You will work out why.

From the Icebreaker app, curated with The Reykjavík Grapevine.

About this tour

We start at your base in Gufunes, where you’ll get suited up in a warm, fleece-lined drysuit to keep you comfortable out on the water. After a short safety briefing, we head out on your jet skis and ride into the bay just as the sun begins to set.

Your first stop is Lundey, a small island that’s home to thousands of puffins during the summer. From May through late August, you’ll have the chance to see them up close, either resting on the rocks or flying over the sea. We’ll have compact binoculars available to help you get a better look.

Next, we ride over to Viðey Island, where we pause to enjoy the peaceful views and snap some sunset photos. The city skyline and surrounding mountains are especially stunning at this time of day.

In between the stops, you’ll have time to enjoy the ride and open up the throttle a bit or just take in the scenery. Your guide will be nearby to keep things safe and help you make the most of the experience.
