Elding has a supported whale research by local and international scientists for years and sometimes they join us onboard to study the whales in Faxaflói bay. Today we had a couple of cetologists out on one of our RIB's to get a bit closer to the humpback whales as they were taking biopsy samples from them.
We also conduct our own research onboard which involves learning about the whales behaviour, frequency of sightings of individuals, location and social structures. Learn more about this research.
Photos attached were taken on our Classic Whale Watching at 17:00 on 3 May 2019 by naturalist Rodrigo and video below is by captain Ottó.
