Today we will be operating on our lovely vessel Eldey for the 09:00 Classic Whale Watching tours. Make sure to dress appropriately for the tours as it is always colder on sea than on land. Unfortunately we had to cancel all of our Premium Whale tours.

    Report from Eldey: We sailed out today into a moody Faxa floi. There was quite a bit of wind so the further we got out the swell picked up a little. It was a little tricky to spot cetaceans but after about an hour we found 6-8 white beaked dolphins. These came quite close and were surfing and feeding. However they did not stick around for long, and as there were a few green faces we decided to hand out complimentary tickets. This gives everyone the chance to come again and see the bay in its full glory.
