• CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 13:00

This morning, we had all kinds of weather. We came across a couple of harbour porpoises, but unfortunately no bigger cetacean, so we issued complimentary tickets to all passengers. In the afternoon we found a minke whale and several harbour porpoises! We observed them resurfacing a few times, before heading back home under heavy snowcovered skies.

We didn't know it yet, but we were in for quite the surprise.. we saw a huge black dorsal fin of a male ORCA - there were 10-12 individuals including males, females and juveniles, all feeding! We also saw 2-3 pods of up to 7 harbour porpoises along the way. In the afternoon we found a pod of 5 white-beaked dolphins that came very close to our boat and check us out!

This morning, the sea welcomed us with calm waters and a light breeze. As we cruised along, we spotted a dorsal fin breaking the surface - it was a minke whale, likely feeding in the waters rich with fish. The skies had cleared up in the afternoon a lot and the winds were pushing our backs. We eventually found a minke whale, surfacing often very close to our boat.

We searched around for a good amount of time this morning, but eventually we were rewarded with a humpback whale! We saw multiple beautiful fluke dives and it even surfaced very close to our boat! In the afternoon, after sailing for nearly an hour, we came across a wonderful spot full of wildlife - a pod of 5 white-beaked dolphins as well as a humpback whale!

We headed out this morning in good weather, with no wind and calm seas. As we sailed along, we found a total of 4 pods of white-beaked dolphins, we could even see some of their little faces very clearly. In the afternoon, in very quick succession, we saw 2 pods of white beaked dolphins consisting of 5 and 6 individuals, actively swimming all around us!

The morning tour saw 2 pods of up to 7 white-beaked dolphins, one with a very young calf as well as a couple of humpback whales! In the afternoon, we again found a humpback whale, but that's not all - we also saw massive dorsal fins breaking the water - it was in fact, a pod of 6 ORCAS! 4 males and 2 females came into the bay today, very close to the city!

This morning, we saw a glimpse of a minke whale, just after passing Grótta. We continued our journey heading towards a few fishing boats, where we saw a humpback whale! Despite our best efforts, the afternoon tour only saw a lone harbour porpoise. So, we handed out complimentary tickets to everyone on board so they can come back and try again!

We set out into calm, foggy sea this morning. After a while, we saw a pod of about 10 white-beaked dolphins swimming calmly. We also spotted a whale, but it was difficult to determine the species from where we were - possibly a rare SEI whale?! In the afternoon we saw a pod of 6 white-beaked dolphins, and another one consisting of 5-7 individuals, with calves!

We sailed out with a fairly strong wind and a strong swell this morning. Unfortunately no cetaceans were found, so we issued complimentary tickets to all passengers. In the afternoon, the sun was shining and it was feeling warm. After a while we found a humpback whale - and suddenly two pods of 7 and 16 white-beaked dolphins came up all around us!

This morning, we spotted white-beaked dolphins in the distance - a pod of about 30 individuals, with 3 small calves! Then a humpback whale surfaced nearby! About one hour into the afternoon tour, we saw a minke whale - it seems like they are truly back, just in time for spring! As we turned around to go back home, we also encountered a humpback whale!

This morning, we saw a blow from a humpback whale that was resting on the surface. A while later, we found 2 pods of white-beaked dolphins! In the afternoon we encountered 2 humpback whales feeding right next to our boat - and then, we saw our first minke whale of the season, and it did a lunge feed too! We also saw a couple of white-beaked dolphins!

We set off with calm seas, a gentle wind and a rising sun peaking through the clouds this morning. In total, we encountered 2 humpback whales and a pod of 25-30 white-beaked dolphins jumping around! In the afternoon we saw a few pods of up to 60 white-beaked dolphins, all feeding huge school of fish (sandeels)! Then a humpback whale surfaced around us too!

In the morning we saw a lunge feeding humpback whale with some birds circling above it, ready to take advantage of any fish it brought to the surface. In the afternoon we again found ourselves a humpback whale! We then were surrounded by 50-60 white-beaked dolphins before we found another 2 more humpback whales on our way back home!
