NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00
Report from Eldey: We headed out with a good weather forecast and as we sailed along the skyline of Reykjavik we already had the northern lights on our left side visible in 2 arches above one another, stretching from the edge of the city to mount Esja. During the tour also different shapes, like a swirl for example, appeared and we could even see the the color red. It was a very good tour with happy guests and happy crew. :)

Few natural phenomena are as mesmerising as the aurora borealis. These shifting curtains of colour sweep across the polar skies, painting them in hues of green, pink, and violet. While their appearance may seem unpredictable, scientists have developed ways to understand when and where they might occur and by studying the activity levels, we can estimate the likelihood of seeing them.
