Tour at 13:00
Report from Hafsúlan: We sailed out from Reykjavík today and were hoping to see the dolphins from yesterday. We sailed to the area where we last saw them and they all seemed to be gone. However, there were many birds around and the bay was lively. We continued our sailing along the Reykjanes peninsula and during our sailing we heard of a Humpback whale close to Keflavík. We rushed there and searched the area by the harbour and that is when we saw it! A small humpback whale surfaced by our boat number of times, raising it's fluke out of the water over and over again. We spent some time observing the animal and then ended our tour in Keflavík. The weather was excellent and the ocean was still.
