Whale Diary
After a snowy morning, we were looking forward to heading out into the bay to find some wildlife! It didn't take us long before we found a couple of feeding humpback whales! We were treated to plenty of fluke dives from both whales as we split our time between them. We then found our third humpback whale also feeding, a little further away.

The clouds separated, but the northern lights never appeared, so we issued complimentary tickets. We did however see a tangled humpback whale, leading us to alert the authorities as we headed back home with mixed feelings..
UPDATE: the whale has been freed!

It took us about 20 minutes to see the first marine mammal, and it was one of at least 3 puppy-faced harbour seals. After about half an hour, we saw a blow from a humpback whale! We could even see its body shape through the water as it was swimming close to the water, making fluke prints on the surface, making it easy to track.

It was a bit windy today, but that didn’t stop us from having an amazing afternoon on the water! We set off and quickly spotted our first humpback whale near Lundey island. We then found another humpback whale near Viðey island and this one was even more incredible - it swam right up close to the boat, thrilling everyone on board.

There was some cloud coverage but there were gaps in the sky. Sadly we didn't end up see any auroras, but enjoyed the city lights and music! In the end we issued complimentary tickets so everyone could try again another night!

Only 15 minutes after leaving the harbour we already spotted a blow, we found Pongo the humpback whale again! A few minutes later spotted another humpback whale! It looked like these two were taking turns coming up. We continued on towards Viðey island where we found another 2 humpback whales, making it a total of 4 today!

The weather was far from perfect, but we knew we didn't have to travel far to find wildlife! After about 20 minutes, we spotted our first humpback whale between the islands of Viðey and Lundey. We watched it do several short dives, and then we spotted two more humpback whales nearby, and even got a super close fluke dive!

Tour Updates
First introduced in 2008 to document wildlife sightings, our online diaries have grown into a comprehensive resource that now also includes updates on the northern lights during winter. The diaries offer much more than just a glimpse into our tours - they provide you with tour status updates, detailed accounts of recent sightings, and a chance to relive the magic of your adventure with us.

Today we headed back to the area between the islands where we've had great success lately. Throughout the tour we saw 5 humpback whales and at one point there were whales in all directions! Most of them were feeding, but some were resting and got very close to our boat - we could even see their whole bodies through the water!

Only 30 minutes into the tour, we saw the beginnings of northern lights! At first they were very faint, but soon turned stronger! Our captain even spotted a humpback whale close by us too as we were headed back home!

We sailed close to Viðey island this afternoon, and not even 15 minutes into the tour, we had found a humpback whale - it was Pongo, an individual last seen in March of this year! We eventually found a harbour seal, as well a second humpback whale in the same area. Then, out of nowhere, Pongo decided to do a single breach for us!
