Reykjavik Sea Angling Gourmet
On this small group fishing tour, we will take you to the best fishing grounds in the bay. Our captains are experienced fishermen, have years of experience and are happy to teach you all the best techniques! To ensure that everyone has the best experience possible, we only take a certain amount of passengers on each trip.
On board you'll get the all the necessary fishing equipment as well as protective clothing. As an added bonus, the crew will barbecue your catch on board, complimented with some potatoes and homemade sauce, and if you catch a lot, you may even keep the rest!
