Tour status: RUNNING

Tour at 13:00

Report from Eldey: The weather was very overcast today as a storm was forecasted for the late evening. The ocean was a little bumpy with the increased wind in the area with larger swells being felt the further we traveled out of the bay. Due to the swell we sailed directly into the waves and then directly back with them to provide a smoother sail. We emcountered two white beaked dolphins on the outbound journey but the encounter was very brief. The dolphins surfaced three times then all of a sudden disappeared. We continued with the search however we discovered no more cetaceans and complimentary tickets were therefore issued.
