Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: A beautiful sunny day out in the bay. So bad we had a fiery wind blowing from the NE. We spent the beginning of the tour trying to get shelter from the eastern coast, making our way almost to the town of Akranes and, once there, we moved a little bit more towards the middle of the bay. The combination of whitecaps and the sunlight made the spotting fairly hard, but our brave passengers stood up in the outside deck helping the crew to spot something - and so we did. Unfortunately, it was only a solitary harbour porpoise that surfaced a couple of times, close to the boat. Therefore we offered some complimentary tickets to our customers and, hopefully, they will have plenty of luck next time!!
