What To Expect

Halldórsskora (Elephant Rock)

A natural marvel shaped by volcanic activity and ocean erosion, Halldórsskora — often called Elephant Rock — looks strikingly like a giant elephant dipping its trunk into the ocean. This massive basalt formation on Heimaey Island has become an iconic symbol of the Westman Islands. Travelers are often amazed at how closely it resembles a real elephant, especially when viewed from the sea. A perfect photo opportunity and a must-see for nature lovers and curious explorers alike.

Eldfell

Explore the dramatic landscape shaped by one of Iceland’s most famous volcanic eruptions. Eldfell, meaning “Fire Mountain,” erupted suddenly in 1973, reshaping the island of Heimaey and forcing the evacuation of the entire population. Today, travelers can hike up the red lava slopes of the volcano for panoramic views of the Westman Islands, walk along paths still marked by lava flows, and learn about the eruption’s impact on local life. It’s a humbling, powerful experience that blends nature, history, and resilience.

At the sanctuary’s visitor center, you’ll learn about marine conservation, the individual stories of the whales, and the efforts behind their rehabilitation. If conditions allow, you may even spot the belugas swimming peacefully in the bay. It's an inspiring and heartwarming experience perfect for families, animal lovers, and anyone curious about ethical wildlife care.
