Tour at 13:00

Report from Hafsúlan: The wind picked up a little from this morning but the view was very good. We had some sailing before we spotted 2 Minke whales. The ones we saw were identified as Humpy and Midy. We said hello to them and then sailed back to Reykjavík harbour.

-Soffia MagnusdottirTour at 9:00Report from Hafsúlan: It was cold as we sailed out this morning but the weather was nice. We sailed for a very long time and all we saw was 2 blows from animals that disappeared quickly. As our time ran out we headed back to the harbour but on our way there we found 2 Minke Whales That we got a great look at! They were swimming close together and one of them was much smaller than the other one so they could have been a mother and a young. What a great ending to the tour, we always have to be patient when it comes to wild life, it can be so surprising! - Freydís Ósk
