It was quite a winy day and the sea was rough. We sailed out, though and we had a good tour. We sailed first
The weather was still very lovely. Even less wind than the few we had all day. We sailed out first to Akurey where we had few Puffins but fortunately we had a few more out in the bay where we had also a few Minke whales. Single moving animals and some were really quite big, pro
Cancelled due to worsening weather conditions :-(
Report from Hafsúla: The weather was still rough out there, but fortunately the wind was coming from the best direction possible so we got some shelter from the land. We saw several minke w
The weather out on the bay turned out better than expected (despite a little rain) and the searching conditions were good. First we went to the puffin island, there are still some puffins there even though most of them have already left. Out on the bay we found minke whales.
The sea and the weather just got better and we spotted a spectacular group of dolphins, they were just a few meters away from the boat, showing us their body very well. We also spotted 7 minke whales around. Sometimes we could see them coming up two together. On the way bac
An excellent tour out in Faxaflói bay. We sailed to the Puffins first. On Akurey still few Puffins were there. Out in the bay we had instead a marvellous tour. We had first a few Minke whales moving around, their blows were visible also since it was a bit windier than this morn
The weather was still very good, light conditions perfect, just a bit less whales around, mainly we had a couple of Minke whales closer to the boat and two more moving around a bit further away.
Report from Elding: Another beautiful trip with
The sea was a little bit more choppy than earlier but the conditions were still really good out on the bay. We spotted some minke whales, they were shallow diving and surfacing frequently. Then we spotted a huge flock of feeding birds in the distance and we hurried over ther
This tour was a bit more unusual than the other two today. We went to our usual area and searched without luck. There was hardly anything to see there. So we sailed further out on the bay and went further out than we have been in a long time. But our patient passengers were
We headed out this afternoon, and were able to spot quite a few Minke whales. Some were very easy to watch but others a little more tricky. We also spotted a group of dolphins which was a little difficult to follow. All of a sudden it seemed that the Gannets had come out of now
Another very good tour, clam sea and sunshine. We headed out into the bay and started spotting many Minke whales, some were very close like one young one which stayed with us for quite a long time, surfacing less than 10 meters from the boat. it was a very perfect sighting!
Report from Hafsúlan: The weather was still perfect and again we could see the group of harbour porpoises coming up the whole trip. We also spotted a lot of minke whales, about 10 individuals all together. A good end of a good day.
Report from Elding: Still really good
Data missing
Report from Elding: Still no rain even if it was very cloudy! We had two very nice minke whales! They made it rather easy for us to follow them while showing the "usual" breathing behaviour: they came several times up to breat
A little bit more difficult this afternoon. We sailed again to the same area where we were previously and there were a few Minke whales out there. They usually just surfaced once and then disappeared for a long time so it was difficult to spot them. At the end of the tour, t
Again a pretty wet and windy trip, but we headed out in spite of the weather. A few passengers were able to spot Harbour Porpoises on the way out, but they disappeared quite quickl
The wind picked up a bit this late afternoon tour, but the whales were still quite amazing. We had a few Minke whales and a lot of feeding group of seabirds mainly gulls, Kittiwakes and Puffins, too. One Minke whale in particular stayed in the area and was feeding moving fro
The whales didn't behave much better in the evening. We spotted several times a blow but the whales to whom they belonged, never show up. There were a few minke whales in the area but they weren't cooperative at all. In the end we spotted one minke whale a few times far away
We started the tour at Akurey to visit the puffins. Then we headed out on Faxaflói to look for the whales. The search was not difficult as they had not travelled far since our last tour. The minke whales behaved much like earlier today, and they were just as many. Another go
We sailed out again and we had to go a bit further out than this morning. Whales moved a bit more offshore but at the end we spotted them. Many minke whales, then we has two sightings of white-beaked dolphins. Seabirds were really amazing , too.
The wind went down again so the sea was nice and calm and still very sunny. We sailed to a similar area as earlier today and the Minke whales were still out there. We spotted 8-10 Minke whales throughout the tour usually 2-3 in each area where we stopped. They were calmer th
