✔ TOUR ON SCHEDULE | at 9:00 and 13:00

Tour at 13:00

Report from Eldey: As we took off from the harbor we decided to take a more sheltered route than this morning, to provide more comfortable journey for our passengers. We searched the bay intensively, but apart from a few pods of 2-3 harbour porpoises, we did not have any more sightings. It so happens that cetaceans can travel very fast and according to whatever they are up to at the moment, sometimes its easier to find them then others. When that are more social or playful with each other, or even when they are feeding, for example, they tend to stick to a certain area for longer periods of time. This is why each tour is always unpredictable. It is though unusual that we come back with no sightings, therefore, since this tour did not hold up to the standards of our company, we offered all our passengers the opportunity to come back again on a free tour with us.Hope to see them all again soon!

Tour at 9:00

Report from Eldey: The swell still accompanies us on our tours and winds are beginning to pick up again. Today was like sailing into a storm, with dark rain filled clouds ahead on the horizon coming closer and closer. But that's what makes an adventure! There was a lot of bird activity about an hours sail out and we were certain there we would see cetaceans. Unfortunayely we had no sightings during our trip but every passenger came to collect their complimentary ticket for a return tour.

Birds seen today: cormorant, common gull, black-backed gull, northern fulmar, northern gannet, black guillemot.

 

We are sailing from the Old Harbour in Reykjavík today at 9:00.There is still an undercurrent after windy weather the last days, so if you are prone to seasickness, we have seasickness tablets free of charge. Make sure to make use of our warm overalls as it is always colder on sea than on land so . For more information contact us by email elding@elding.is or by phone +354 519 5000
