Today we will be operating on our lovely vessel Eldey for our Classic Whale Watching  tour. Make sure to dress according to weather, as it is usually colder at sea than on land.

CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 09:00

Report from Eldey: This morning we sailed into the wind and the waves. First, we investigated the areas around the islands, where we often had good sightings over the last few days. Once we did not spot anything we sailed into the waves further from shore in hope of some animals. Briefly a harbour porpoise made an appearance close by but after surfacing a few times it quickly disappeared. We did have a few green faces and as we did not have any more sightings during today's tour we handed out complementary tickets. This way everyone can try their luck again on another day!
