Despite lumpy conditions, we utilized the full potential of National Geographic Endurance’s Azipod dynamic positioning system to get the ship as close as possible to the island for a short Zodiac ride to Grimsey Island. Ashore, guests enjoyed fantastic looks at the most iconic of Icelandic animals: the Atlantic puffin. The island is home to over 40,000 puffins and many thousands of other species of seabirds, making it a wonderful wildlife spectacle.
