We had another beautiful sunrise as we left the harbour and sailed towards Hafnarfjörður. We first saw a humpback whale in very shallow waters and later found a second feeding humpback whale! In the afternoon we headed to the same area, and found 2 humpback whales (one of them was our friend Calamity) - we had a great encounter with this individual!

Our night started out promising as we could see some faint northern lights just outside the harbour walls. However, they never got stronger, so we of course issued complimentary tickets to all our guests, so they can return and try again another time!
We were treated to a beautiful sunrise as we made our way to Hafnarfjörður, where we spotted a humpback whale. In the afternoon we sailed close to the shore, and again saw a blow near the harbour in Hafnarfjörður! It turned out to be from 2 humpback whales! They were very busy feeding on sprat and we could see the inside of their mouths at times even!
What a morning! We were greeted by the most incredible sunrise as we sailed towards Hafnarfjörður, and just as we approached the harbour, we spotted 3 harbour porpoises and 2 humpback whales feeding together. We sailed to the same are in the afternoon and saw the 2 humpback whales, still lunge feeding, surrounded by northern gannets!

What a night! We sailed into the bay hopeful, as the KP index was 4! We could see Jupiter, Mars, and Venus and then out of nowhere, the sky lit up! The northern lights came out, and they were absolutely unreal - dancing across the sky in pink and green!

We headed out into the bay with high hopes, but unfortunately the auroras were shy tonight, so the only thing we saw were stars and Venus. Once the tour came to an end, we issued complimentary tickets to our patient guests.
This morning we headed to the same place we found a whale yesterday and we got lucky again! We saw lots of northern gannets diving, and soon enough, 3 lunge feeding humpback whales surfaced (one of which was Pongo)! The afternoon saw the same 3 humpback whales, still feeding really close to shore! What a great day at sea!

It was cloudier than expected, but we had a good view of Jupiter, Mars, and Venus. Suddenly, the entire boat gasped and pointed to the sky - the northern lights had appeared and were dancing above us in vivid green and pink swirls!
In the morning we saw plunge diving northern gannets and a few grey seals feeding on their scraps. Not long after, we had found a humpback whale - it was our friend Pongo! In the afternoon we found a pod of 5 white-beaked dolphins and 2 harbour porpoises, however due to the quick sightings we issued complimentary tickets.

Due to unfavourable weather conditions, we have decided to CANCEL the Northern Lights Cruise tonight!
This morning it was overcast and windy with some rain. We again made our way towards Hafnarfjörður where we found a pod of 3 white-beaked dolphins and a humpback whale. In the afternoon we sailed to the back to the same area where one of our passengers spotted the humpback whale we saw in the morning, lunge feeding!

We set sails to Hafnarfjörður this morning, which has been a hot spot for wildlife lately. There, we finally caught a glimpse of a feeding humpback whale - then out of nowhere, a HUGE breach! On the way back, we even saw another humpback whale! In the afternoon we soon found 2 humpback whales - one of which was our friend Pongo!
We headed towards Hafnarfjörður under sun, snow and hail. When we arrived to our destination, we came across a feeding and rolling humpback whale, about 20-25 harbour porpoises and many feeding seabirds. In the afternoon we found the same humpback whale again, where it was surfacing quite a lot and showing us it's fluke.

Whist we were still in the harbour we could see a number of planets, but unfortunately the clouds never really parted and we saw no auroras. Such a shame - but we issued complimentary tickets so that everyone can return!
