Report from Þruma Rib: It was so beautiful this morning with little wind and very sunny, perfect day for the RIB, one hour later it all changed, wind picked up, dark clouds rolled in and rain started to fall. We still decided to go out and give it our best and the bay was actually full of life. We saw a small pod of about 4 white-beaked dolphins, a minke whale and a humpback whale, however the minke only surfaced once, humpback which was more a grumpy humpy and only surfaced a few times and never showed the fluke. The highlight of the tour was actually the pod of dolphins and the diverse birdlife. It was a choppy ride back but the passengers enjoyed it nonetheless.
