Tour at 13:00

Report from Hafsúlan: We headed out on to the bay today in very good conditions. Calm seas, slow winds and things were looking quite promising as we sailed out between the puffin islands of Akurey and Engey. We began our search by heading straight out into the bay towards the main whale watching area. We searched there for a while before deciding to try our luck along the Reykjanes peninsula on the way back. But despite our best efforts we were unfortunately not able to spot any whales today. This might be because of the whales simply not being in a talkative mood today or more likely because of lack of food in the bay today. As always after a tour like this, all our passengers got a complimentary ticket valid for the next two years and we hope to see them again soon.
