The day was quite grey but there was finally barely any wind at sea and just a few long waves. Although we saw 2 harbour porpoises and a pod of 3 white-beaked dolphins in the morning, we decided to offer the passengers complimentary tickets. The afternoon tour, in addition to that, also saw a minke whale and a humpback whale!
We sailed out this afternoon onto a gloomy bay with moderate swell. After about an hour of sailing we spotted 2 white-beaked dolphins and on the way back we saw 3 harbour porpoises. Ultimately we decided to offer our guests complimentary tickets as both sightings were very short lived.

This morning we were able to sail out for the first time in a few days hoping to see some marine wildlife. Not too long after leaving the harbour it started to snow. Around this same time we also saw a harbour porpoise, then about 10 white-beaked dolphins before we also got a quick glimpse at a minke whale!

There were gaps in the clouds tonight and we could see stars and a very faint arch above Esja. Sadly it stayed very faint and was a bit tricky to see at times so we decided to hand out complimentary tickets, to give everyone on board a chance to view the auroras another night.

The northern lights appeared only at the very end of the tour, somewhat faint but still very visible in their green color right over Akranes and the mountain Akrafjall. This concluded our chill tour with success!

This evening we were excited as we were greeted starry skies and already on the way out (having just left the harbour) we could see an arch of northern lights! The lights were with us all evening, sometimes dancing, sometimes stronger and sometimes weaker. It was a truly magical evening!

The night was cold, but extremely calm, so we packed ourselves with cozy overalls and we were ready to wait for the lights to show up. They decided to take their time, but we could finally spot them: we had northern lights right above the Mountain of Esja!

The skies were very clear and we saw northern lights from the start of the tour. They were faint at first, but gradually grew greener as time passed by and we got away from the light pollution. We observed them for a while in all shapes and colours!
