Between Viðey island and the mainland we spotted a total of 3 humpback whales. It was really nice, the whales stayed most of the time in the same area, swimming in circles, feeding. They gave us several flukes, and in the end of the tour, one of them came really close, just a few feet away. Everyone on board were equally ecstatic!

The forecast looked promising for tonight, but unfortunately the auroras didn’t make an appearance. It was a bit of a letdown, but we made sure to offer everyone on board complimentary tickets to come back another night!

Today was a beautiful winter day with blue skies and calm seas. Throughout the tour we saw a total of 5 humpback whales! We first approached the far side of Viðey and found two whales swimming side by side. Then we spotted a third one a bit further away, then a fourth sleeping and finally a fifth one that was actively feeding!

We quickly found 2 humpback whales surrounding the islands of Viðey and Lundey. Staying with each, one at a time, we had the chance to see 2 very different behaviours: feeding and resting. As the sun started to set over the appearing clouds, we started heading back, luckily noticing small pods of harbour porpoises on our way home.

With good weather and little to no clouds, we were hopeful for tonight. We ended up waiting a long time, but in the last hour, a stable clear green arch of northern lights appeared overr the mountains of Esja and Akrafjall!

Our tour started under a white powdered snow storm. After a few minutes of sailing, the head of a grey seal popped up out of nowhere. Then, a humpback whale came up to get some air and this individual seemed to be resting close to the surface, but we got a few good looks at its fluke and determined it was our friend from yesterday!

Today was a bit windy, but we enjoyed nice calm seas. It didn't take us long to find 2 humpback whales between the islands! We split our time between the two, and as they got sleepy, we were lucky to be able to watch them super close to the boat, resting. As we headed back, we all warmed up with some nice hot chocolate!

We had calm seas waiting for us as we sailed into the bay. After only 13 minutes we had already found a feeding humpback whale! Since we didn't want to overstay our welcome, we headed further out and sailed towards Hvalfjörður, where we spotted another humpback whale and even saw a third humpback whale on our way home!

An hour into the tour, a big gap opened up and we could see Jupiter - and then we heard a loud noise - it turned out to be 2 humpback whales feeding! Despite this happy surprise, we saw no auroras so we issued complimentary tickets!

The forecast was good, indicating strong magnetic activity, and the skies were super clear. Tonight did not disappoint! As soon as we left the marina we already had northern lights, stretching in a wide arch, all the way to mt. Esja.
