The most impressive animal you can see on (or actually: near) Iceland, is the whale. From several harbours you can book a trip on a former whaling-boat to hunt for whales. The Minky Whale is the whale which almost everybody will encounter. Depending on the location and the time of year you can as well see the hunchback or the blue whale. We were not that lucky, and the photos in the brochure with whales at five meters from the boat are probably once-in-a-time. Still, a whale of 'only' 10 meters length at a distance of 30 meters is great to see.
