Whale Watching departure at 09:00 & Lava Show at 14:00 Whale Watching departure at 13:00 & Lava Show at 18:00 Join a Whale watching sea adventure! Something fun and different. Get in touch with the diverse sea life and witness the Reykjavík skyline from a whole new angle. The only live LAVA SHOW in the world! In order to recreate a miniature volcano eruption, they superheat real lava from the 1918 Katla eruption and once molten, pour it into a showroom full of people. It is an incredible, unforgettable experience. In an instant, the showroom heats up to a toasty temperature. And as the audience sits safe in their seats yet only a few feet away from the flowing lava, it is mesmerizing to see, hear, smell and feel the incredible heat that radiates from it.
