Hi, is there a difference between going to the island in the morning versus afternoon? We are mainly going for the puffins and are wondering if going 8:30-11:30 would be better than 10-1. THANKS

I would agree, you may wish to verify if the Puffins are there depending on when you are visiting. I would choose later rather than earlier.
Hi Just read your article about Vigur Island and we will be in Isafjordur July 2020 and wanted to go. Who did you use to go to the island. We will be on a cruise ship and we would like to do it on our own. Thanks, Margaret

We used the ship excursion as it was the only one available at the time. There wasn't any independent excursions available as the ship secured the only game in town.

We looked at different ways to visit the island and found the cruise offered by the ship to be in line. In addition, when we were at the island the weather changed and it took us over 90 minutes to get back due to 12 to 15 foot seas. Our group was the last ones to board the ship. The ship had to wait because we were ship sponsored. Check your schedule if you take a tour not associated with the cruise to make sure you can make it back.
