✔ TOUR ON SCHEDULE | 13:00
Report from Eldey: The afternoon was beautiful but windy. We had the sun the whole tour and luckily no rain. In the beginning of the tour we encountered 3 harbour porpoises, they were quite close to the boat but as always very fast and since we know that they are shy and fast we did not stop for them. We headed out further out and it was some big swell but that did not stop us. Halfway into the tour we found a couple of white beaked dolphins but as the previous tour the dolphins were elusive, and we only saw 3 of them a couple of times. It is wildlife and we cannot control it.. and we know we can give our passenger a better experince in our bay, so we offered all our passengers complementary ticket to come again for free within the next two years.

✔ TOUR ON SCHEDULE | 09:00
Report from Eldey: Apart from a bit of a swell and light rains, this ride was quite comfortable and enjoyable as our guests were able to enjoy our beautiful surroundings. However, despite the crew’s best efforts, apart from an elusive couple of white beaked dolphins, we did not have any proper sightings during this tour. Therefore, and though this is something that we simply can not control when working with wildlife, since we know we are able to provide a better experience, we offered complementary tickets to all our passengers, so that they can all come back again on another whale watching tour with us, for free.
