The weather was great this afternoon when we headed out from Reykjavík. Close to the area were we found the whales this morning we spotted our first minke whale. But there was not only one in the area, at least 4-5 minke whales and a small group of harbour porpoises showed u
The Minke Whales were difficult on this tour only surfacing once or twice before going for a deep dive then surfacing again very far away that we couldn't locate it again. We maybe saw 3-4 whales on this tour but only a short time with each. The highlight of the tour were th
We headed straight out to the area where we were this morning hoping to see the same as this morning but on the way we came upon a small pod of White-beaked Dolphins which weren't that interested in us so we stayed a couple of minutes then left them alone. I think the Minkes
We were going to start our tour at Puffin Island but on the way we were lucky to come across a small pod of Harbour Porpoises which surfaced close and many times. At Puffin Island we saw only 4 Puffins and only 1 out in Faxaflói. Further offshore we observed a small pod of a
This afternoon we started out by visiting Akurey where the Puffins live during the summer. Some of them were sitting at the surface around the island and others were flying but not many on the island itself. We then headed out. The wind was behind us so the ride out to Faxaf
It was still a bit windy and the sun was shining when we headed out to Faxaflói this afternoon. We stopped by the puffin island Akurey and saw some puffins. We sailed very far out and spent a long time searching for whales. Finally we found a group of white-beaked dolphins.
We set out this afternoon with some pretty big waves, strong wind and the sun was shining. After visiting the puffin island Lundey we headed out to Faxaflói to find the whales. After searching for a long time in a rough weather we finally spotted a blow for a minke whale. It

Once again it took us a while before seeing our first Minke Whale and what a great Minke it was, surfacing only 20-30 meters from our boat. We were also lucky on this tour to view the spectacular feeding behaviour of the Northern Gannets as they plunge into the water after f
The wind had picked up a bit more when we headed out again this afternoon. We sailed to the area where we spotted the whales earlier this morning, but there was no sign of them, and no bird’s either. So we headed further out. We spent a long time searching but had no luck
We headed straight out to the same area we found the humpback this morning, hoping to find it again. When we came to the area we spotted a minke whale and them a big blow. It was the humpback again. What luck. The bird live was very active in the area, diving gannets among o

The weather was very nice, calm sea and the sun was peaking out from the clouds. The puffin island was nice but the whales were hiding from us, except three harbour porpoises which showed up two times before disappearing. We sailed quite far out, searching for whales and eve
Again the sun was out but the cold Icelandic wind cancelled out the warmth from the sun. We started the tour at Akurey (Puffin Island) and saw many on and around the island with a couple flying very close to the boat. We then headed further North to an area where we have bee
The weather was getting better when we set out this afternoon. The puffins were all around the island. We spotted one small pod of harbour porpoises but they disappeared soon. We were searching for a long time, crossing a big whale watching area, looking for whales, but desp
