- NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00
This evening, we had partly cloudy skies but managed to see very faint northern lights above the mountains as we were heading home. Due to the short-lived and faint lights, we of course gave our passengers complimentary tickets to come again!

We sailed out in beautiful weather this morning. Not far from the harbour we spotted 3 humpback whales, one of them we know as "Birdie". The afternoon was also beautifully calm, with perfect blue skies and mirror like seas. We soon found a pair of humpback whales again whom swam side by side for the whole encounter. We also found a minke whale on our way home.

The northern lights were out even before the boat left the harbour, and they continued to shine bright for us throughout the tour. They were intense and dancing above mt. Esja as we stopped to admire the Imagine Peace Tower on our way home!

We sailed towards Engey this morning where we spotted a feeding humpback whale! This individual was very relaxed at the surface and gave us really nice fluke dives. The wind had picked up in the afternoon but right out the harbour, we spotted a feeding minke whale and a pair of humpback whales, before eventually spotting a tiny little harbour seal!

Right as we left the harbour, we spotted very strong northern lights appearing over mt. Esja. As we made our way closer, they started expanding! We had mostly green, with even a little red! After a while, they started crossing over the Imagine Peace Tower.

The weather was great as we sailed out this morning. After quite a while, we spotted a small pod of around 6 white-beaked dolphins, and then another pod of about 15-20 individuals with a lot of young ones from this year! In the afternoon we found a minke whale as well as a pair of humpback whales close to the coastline in front of mount Esja.

A thick layer of clouds covered the sky as we went out onto the bay, however we remained hopeful. The glow of the Imagine Peace Tower lit up the sky and we were able to see the northern lights grow into the most beautiful arches in all colours.

The weather was as good as it can this morning. With a gentle breeze, we found a couple of feeding humpback whales just a few minutes outside of the harbour, and we were also able to spot a sneaky harbour seal! The sun continued to shine and warm us during our afternoon tour as we spotted 2-3 humpback whales near the harbour, as well as a minke whale.

Northern Lights Forecast Guide
Few natural phenomena are as mesmerising as the aurora borealis. These shifting curtains of colour sweep across the polar skies, painting them in hues of green, pink, and violet. While their appearance may seem unpredictable, scientists have developed ways to understand when and where they might occur and by studying the activity levels, we can estimate the likelihood of seeing them.

We were hopeful with the forecast for this evening. We made a quick stop at the Imagine Peace Tower where we found 2 humpback whales! Soon after we saw faint green northern lights but due to the quality we ended up issuing complimentary tickets.

We were enjoying the beautiful sunrise this morning when a minke whale suddenly popped up. Shortly after, we spotted the blow of a couple of humpback whales! We were then surprised by another solitary minke whale! In the afternoon we again found a minke whale and 2-4 humpback whales, some of which were feeding. What a great way to end a wonderful afternoon close to shore!
