Tour at 13:00

We began the tour with a stop by the Puffin Island, Akurey. We then headed out onto Faxaflói bay and searched for a long time, until we finally saw a group of white-beaked dolphins. The approached the boat quite often, and our guests got a good look at them. Unfortunately the Minke whales are still missing. Hopefully they will be back soon. There seem to be a lot of dolphins in the bay at the moment, which is good news :)

 

Tour at 9:00

We began by sailing out onto Faxaflói bay in search of whales. We soon encountered several groups of white-beaked dolphins, which were coming to the surface in all directions. We sailed on to see if we could find some other species, but didn't see anything until we turned the boat back towards Reykjavik. We then encountered another group of white-beaked dolphins. We then sailed on to Lundey (Puffin Island) were our guests were able to observe the birds.
