- CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 13:00
Today's whale watching tour from Reykjavík is on schedule! Remember to dress according to weather and feel free to borrow our thermal overalls if needed!
CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 13:00
Report from Eldey: We ventured out of the harbour in search of fun in the form of whales! Soon enough, after about 15 minutes of search, we were able to spot some blows in the distance! As we got closer, we could confirm that it was in fact 2 humpback whales!! Around this area there were about 3 harbour seals and 1 grey seal. It was a feeding party! The whales were moving very little, but diving every now and then, showing us the fluke. After a while we moved on, searching for more stuff in the distance. Loopin around Lundey we came back to the humpbacks and we saw Radar jumping out of the water!! After that it was pec slapping for at least 5 minutes non-stop! A truly lucky sight! After it was done, Radar and Banana went down on a fluke dive, and we got back to the harbour. My 2025 season is complete, see you next year!!
