This morning we sailed out in swell and sun that turned into snow, to rain and sun again! On the way out we saw 2 quick harbour porpoises before finding a humpback whale (Frodo). She came up multiple times and always stayed close and even did a peduncle throw, to our delight! The afternoon tour was cancelled due to weather.

According to the forecast, the clouds should have eventually cleared up, but they never went away.. It left us a bit disappointed, but we offered complimentary tickets to our dear passengers to try again on another night.

As we were passing by Engey island this morning, we noticed a blow near its shore - it was Frodo the humpback whale! She was in a very shallow place but managed to show off her signature fluke dives. In the afternoon we found Frodo again, and this time she came very close to our boatt and swam all around us!

After 30 min sailing this morning, we found a humpback whale (Frodo) between the islands, doing beautiful fluke dives. In the afternoon we found 3-4 harbour porpoises quickly surfing past us. Our captain then spotted the back of a minke whale and it wasn't too long before we also spotted Frodo that did 3 full body breaches!

As we sailed out of the harbour, we were met with an orange sky from the volcano that erupted an hour prior! Sadly there were no northern lights seen, so we gave all our passengers complimentary tickets for a second try!

We sailed out into a calm bay this morning. We found our friendly resident humpback whale (Frodo) after only a few minutes! In the afternoon we found the humpback whale again, close to Viðey island. Then, we saw a big curved dorsal fin in the distance; it was a minke whale! It came up very regularly and was quite easy to follow.

This morning we braved the waves and found a humpback whale (Frodo) lunge feeding before doing an impressive peduncle throw! In the afternoon we headed to the same area as this morning and came across 2 harbour porpoises before finally spotting Frodo again, lunge feeding, close to a little island called Akurey!

It didn't take long to find a humpback whale (Frodo), this morning. We saw lots of nice fluke dives and then out of nowhere; many peduncle throws, multiple tail slaps and a breach! The afternoon tour saw Frodo again, this time lunge feeding and surfacing close to shore before breaching, and again, tail slapping multiple times! WOW!

This evening we sailed out in a bit of windy conditions, but under a starry sky. We waited patiently all evening but sadly were not joined by the northern lights, so we offered complimentary tickets to all our passengers!

This morning, the sea was as flat as a lake and it almost felt like summer! It didn't take long until we found our friend Frodo, the humpback whale! The afternoon was the same, after a short ride we found Frodo once more, when an eagle-eyed passenger spotted a breach of a minke whale! We also saw 2 harbour porpoises nearby!

There were some clouds in the sky but there were some gaps that got bigger and we were able to see stars through them. The lights never really showed up however, so we offered complimentary tickets to our passengers.
