The humpback whales were still many out at sea: we encountered again some we spotted in the morning and afternoon, and all and all we had more than 5 of them, some of which were feeding in the same spot with the white-beaked dolphins!

Again we left from Grindavík harbour, and sailed a similar route as at 13:00. This time we were much luckier! We spotted a Minke whale on the way to the Krísuvíkurberg cliff, but we soon lost it. On the way back from to the harbour after turning the boat around, we sp
Cancelled due to increasing winds :(
The wind was even stronger now, and we only managed to see a few white beaked dolphins very quickly before we lost them. No luck this time.
Strong winds made the trip
At the beginning of our tour, there were no whales visible, we sailed the first hour without seeing them, but on our way back we met Humpback whale and we stayed in a close distance watching its behaviour. It jumped once and then it kept surfacing.
Such a unique tour this late afternoon: not only the sea was still calm, but the whales displayed really much: one minke whale was jumping in front of us, less than 100 m for so many times that I forgot the exact number.. jumping, breaching, even in belly up! And even the hu
Still a lot of minke whales were feeding out in Faxafloi: we could observed 4 of them, as well as a pod of more than 4 white-beaked dolphins and one humpback whale!
Another successful tour: still a lot of minke whales were around and al le

This afternoon as well we spotted some minke whales. The first one seemed to be avoiding the boat. Therefore we left it after a little while. The second one was more fun to watch until it suddenly went down for a long long deep dive and wa
We found 3 or 4 Minke whale individuals, which was of course great. Some of our passengers spotted some huge splashes out in the distance, so we decided that we would go and investigate what was causing the splashes, although this meant we would be late. A young Humpback wha
The weather was a bit rougher as usual in the late afternoon and we spotted few minke whales quite far from the coast!
This afternoon was as successful as the morning trip: more than 5 minke whales, playful white-beaked dolphins and one hu
The sea state got a little bit rougher than this morning and the whales moved futher out but we still had a great chance to spot a new humpback whale, we didn´t know from the previous weeks wich displayed a lot of unusual behaviours!

Another very successful tour: first stop Puffin Island where many puffin where waiting for us, then going out three humpback whales stayed with us for at least half an hour, one minke whale and white-beaked dolphins have been spotted.

This evening we went out and looked for the Humpback whales again, we found at least 4-5 individuals but were unable to get a close look at any of them as they were very busy feeding. It was nice though, we were able to spot the whales flukes as they went down for their deep
A fun trip although we weren't able to spot any whales, just a blow in the distance.
A lot of brave people went out with us on a windy afternoon tour. We searched for a long time and almost on the way back to the harbour we spotted one min

We had no luck this morning. We did spot three times clearly a blow, but we never spotted a whale!
Trip has been cancelled due to bad weather and sea conditions
A nice sunny early afternoon: some white-cups, when we went out , were visible at the water surface but it was still a good weather and good visibility. Unfortunately soon after
No data
We saw just 2-3 White beaked dolphins and then on the way back a lot of Puffins on the Island Akurey.
There were lots of White beaked dolphins all around the boat jumping, maybe 20-30 individuals.
Just when we thought things couldn't get any better, amazingly they did! We had a similar tour to the trip at 13:00, saw the four species in the same order. But when we were with the humpback whale this time, we saw another humpback breaching in the distance. We sailed towar
Although the weather was still quite rough we were lucky enough to spot two Minke whales. The first one we saw quite well, but just a quick look at the second one. We stopped by the puffin island on the way back to the harbour. Our passengers were very happy with a very succ

This afternoon we went out to the same area where we spotted yesterday all the humpback whales, but we couldn't find any. While we were searching for a blow a very lively big group of dolphins visited us and stayed for a while with us. Lat
To end up the day, another great tour: more than 4 humpback whales around we didn´t know ehere to look! We decided then to go for a couple, mother and a very joung one, which spent most of its time breaching and approaching us very close.
