Report from Hafsúlan: Faxaflói Bay looked so beautiful as we sailed out that we wished that we had our 20.30 whale-watching tour (what we call the 'Romantic Whale Watching) already but that will only happen in mid-June. Even so, there was a lot of romance onboard, for what co
Report from Hafsúlan: It took us a while to spot the first Minke Whale, it didn't surface very often and in between long deep dives. But we could have a quick look at it 2-3 times. Then we decided to try our chance in another area and after a little while we saw quite a big
(Report from Hafsulan) On this tour we tried to find the Humpback whale again, but as nature is very unpredictable it changes very fast and we didn't find it. We did however find one of our favourite Minke Whales called Donut that we have seen many times, every year since 20
(Report from Hafsúlan) The weather was still perfect with the added bonus of the beautiful evening light. We went straightout on this tour and found some Harbour Porpoises about 30-40 minutes into the tour which were entertaining the passengers as they surfaced meters fro
Report from Elding: The sky was dark and rainy as we sailed out to what was to become the last trip of day that had been very successful hitherto. With the 0900 and 1300 tours having seen a number of Minke Whales and Harbour Porpoises in addition to rich birdlife, we had h
Sadly we also had to cancel this tour due to strong winds out on Faxaflói Bay since safety is our number one priority.
Unfortunately again we need to cancel the 13.00 o'clock tour due to strong winds out in Faxaflói bay. The office is open

(Report from Elding) The wind had picked up alot on this tour and the boat rocked quite a bit which was a lot of fun but had to be careful on the way back because you might of got
Report from Elding II: We had only a small group off guests with us on this tour so we decided to take one of our smaller boats out on the tour. We headed out into the calm bay which was in a great evening light. It did not took as very long time until we spotted the first Mi
Report from Hafsúlan: Having high hopes after the good first tours of the day we stopped in the beginning at the Puffin Island. Once we got further out into the bay we spotted one Minke Whale that surfaced only once. After that we headed to a flock of feeding birds and could
Report from Hafsúlan: What a tour, two Fin Whales (second largest whale after the Blue Whale), Minke Whales and White-beaked Dolphins. We headed very far offshore on this tour. After about 40-50 minutes of sailing, one of the passengers started pointing. We waited for a li
A very long but beautiful tour. We started at Puffin Island and like the last tour there was maybe a couple at home, most either in their burrows or out at sea feeding. We then headed very far out to same area as the last tour with Hafsulan. We did see a couple of Harbour P
The wind had picked up quite a bit on this tour but still it was relatively smooth sailing in the bay. We started at Puffin Island and once again not disappointed with hundreds waddling about the island. We then headed offshore to the main area of the day. We did spot someWh
Report from Hafsúlan: After the great first tours today we sailed again into the bay. But sometimes it is strange how the marine life is changing in a few hours. On this tour we were searching for a very long time but unfortunately we could not find any bigger Whales. On the
Report from Hafsúla The wind had picked up a little bit this evening when we sailed out. The puffins were at home in Akurey when we took our stop there. We searched for a very long time now. We saw few harbour porpoises fast swimming away from us twice. The wind was blowing
Unfortunately we have cancelled all tours today due to a storm
Unfortunetly we had to cancel the whale watching tour at 13.00 due to a storm out at sea. The office is open till 15.00 today so please come down to the old harbour or ring us if you require further information. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
After the morning tour we were exited if the Minke Whales might be easier to watch but before we headed further out into the bay we stopped again at Akurey too look at the Puffins. Once we came to the area were we usually spot whales we started the tour with a small pod of Ha
It was raining when this tour started but it wasn´t long before it stopped again. This tour was also very productive with the wildlife. Not only did we see 3 or 4 Minkes but also many Harbour Porpoises and plunging Gannets and Puffins swimming on the waters surface. A great w
