What a tour, best tour in a long time with Minke Whales (at least 10-15 individuals we saw throughout the tour) surfacing in all directions and distances, Harbour Porpoises skimming the waters in their little groups and Gannets plunging into the water a meter or two from the
The perfect day for Whale Watching, not only was the weather beautiful but the whales were in abundance. Saw many Harbour Porpoises surfacing everywhere and about 2 Minke Whales one that we went back to at the end of the tour because he/she was coming so close to the boat jus
We started in to the absolute calm Faxaflói Bay in a beautiful sunshine and just a little bit more wind than we had this morning. We could see both peninsular and the glacier far out in the bay. After we sailed for a bit into this calm and beautiful bay we came in an area wit
Report from Elding: Having high hopes after the morning tour we headed straight towards the same area again were we spotted so many Minke Whales in the morning. The weather was still great, the sky was clear and we had a lot of sun but still it was windy and the waves moved o
The weather was still nice but again alittle cold, we headed to the same area as this morning and at last on the way we saw many Harbour Porpoises, saw some surfacing only a meter of two from the boat and you could see them clearly surfing the swells. We saw a quick glimpse o
Again we sailed in a wonderful sunshine into the calm Faxaflói Bay. Just the wind got a little bit more and it was a bit more choppy this afternoon. It cleared up even more, so we could see the Glacier far away in the Bay. Again we did not sail very long until we found the fi
The wind had picked up a little on this tour so it was quite chilly so more of our passengers made use of the free overall and blankets we have onboard. The whales were more difficult on this tour too but we got to see three species. First it was Harbour Porpoises which were
Again we started into the beautiful Faxaflói Bay in brilliant weather. The afternoon even the swell was less than in the morning and it did not take us a very long time to find the first Harbor Porpoises. To find the first Minke Whale of the afternoon tour we had to search a
Even it looked like it could start to rain every minute the tour was mostly try, the only thing that could have been better was the swell that moved our boat up and down. Compared to the morning tour we had to search for a bit longer until we found our first Minke Whale. Agai
Once again we departed from Keflavík and ended the tour in Reykjavík. It was a long long tour but we really wanted to stay out a bit longer and search from these whales were ever they may be. We eventually got to the area where we saw Minke Whales and a Humpback Whale yesterd
White-beaked Dolphins, Harbour Porpoises, Puffins and Gannets seen on this tour but in not the nicest of weathers. Not only was the sea a bit rough but it was raining :(, We went back to the area were we saw the Humpback Whale and Minkes from this mornings tour but no luck.
The swell seemed to calm down a little on this tour but you could still practice your surfing skills on the way out by bending your knees with the swells, a lot of fun. Again, we saw many Puffins and some Harbour Porpoises. We went straight to the area from the morning tour t
Starting again from Hafnarfjörður we sailed again into the foggy and rained Faxaflói Bay. Not that far than in the morning tour we found the first 2+ Minke Whales of the afternoon. As they were harder to spot than those in the morning we decided to head further out to the pla
Starting again into the calm Faxaflói Bay we hoped to find the Minke Whales from the morning tour again. Still we had not a lot of swell and in the bay seemed not to be a lot marine life around. So we had to be really really patient and searched for a long time until we had
Again we tried our luck in the windy and not very calm Faxaflói Bay. It was still not very much going on there and we had to search for a long time until we spotted the first group of Harbour Porpoises. As usually they were shy and hard to spot, so we headed on hoping to fin
There was even less wind in this tour then in the morning and the sea was calm as a mirror. It was great to sail in such a peacefully bay again. And it didn't take us long until we encountered our first Minke Whale of the tour. Heading further out, we found a second Minke Wh
Wow what a tour. The wind had calmed down considerably to the point that the sea was almost like a mirror. Smooth sailing in Faxaflói Bay on this tour. Once again we saw many Puffins and Harbour Porpoises as we headed further offshore and it wasn't long till our first Minke
Once again it was a great Whale Watching tour, many Minke Whales, Harbour Porpoises and Puffins. Everywhere we looked there was something coming to the surface. We got word of a Humpback Whale further out so we went to try and find it, we searched and searched but unfortunat
The sky was still clear and the sea was absolutely calm, even the cold wind we had in the morning was a bit less now. We sailed for a while until we spotted the first Minke Whales again. This time they seemed to be a bit better to spot than in the morning tour, so we stayed
Report from Elding: I don't think I need to repeat the report from Hafúlan, but I will anyways, WHAT A DAY! We started the tour by seeing nice pod of harbour porpoises. They were just everywhere around us and some of them came very close to us! Little later we saw a minke wh
