The afternoon tour started with encountering the White-beaked Dolphins, that we did't see for quite a while. They were approaching us several times and diving under the boat, great to watch. Harbour porpoises were also spotted during this tour, but not as nicely as during th
Another tour in really nice weather conditions, very sunny and calm sea but again it prooved to be very difficult to find the whales. A blow was spotted by one of our boats but the whale did not show up again.
Finally the weather condition

The last day of rough northeasterliy winds today! Still the wind speed was low enough to have a nice whalesafari: A group of 4 Harbour Porpoises and 1 Minke Whale with its powerful blow just 50 meter in fron

Still the wind was rough and cold. We searched in Faxafloi for whales and had a short but very close and clear sighting of harbour porpoises. Nice watch! Due to the wind speed we headed back to the Old Harbour soon afterwords.

The wind was still very strong in the afternoon, but otherwise it was beautiful weather. A short time after we started searching, a lovely group of harbour porpoises crossed our way and we had them around us for some time. Later we spotted one minke whale breathing a few tim
Cancelled due to high wind speed!
We went out with two boats on this morning trip. Great sunshine, good visibility, no rain but a strong northeastern wind... . This 12m/s wind speed prevented us from spotting the minke whales and harbour porpoises
Again we had fantastic weather in the afternoon and perfect whale watching conditions. There was no wind and we could easily spot the whales from far away. Like this morning the whales were close to land and after sailing just a short time we spotted the first minke whales

We went out in preety windy weather which improved a lot during the tour. While heading out we spotted a minke and had a pod of harbour porpoises really close to the boat. We made a big loop by sailing further out into the bay...but only when we came back closer to coast we ha
The wind was increasing a bit in the afternoon but even so we had good whale watching conditions. There are not many birds around yet but we did see some puffins! Our first sighting on this tour was a group of harbour porpoises which surfaced a lot. Our second sighting was a
We went out pretty far. Although sea conditions were favorable we did not spot any whales. On the other hand the number of puffins is increasing each day. Soon we will do our puffin safaris again
Today the wind picked up a bit. Still the visibility was g
Again we found lots of harbour porpoises, througout the tour it was possible to spot them in the distance. We encountered 3 individuals of the Minke Whales - they did not stay very long with us but with all of them we had a few very good sightings of their surfacing behaviou
Another perfect day for whale-watching ! Completely flat sea and hardly any wind at all made up perfect conditions for all our tours today.
Another great tour with again lots of Harbour porpoises and Minke Whales around. We were unlucky with the dolphins this time, did
A GREAT DAY FOR WHALE-WATCHING!
This tour started with encountering the White-beaked Dolphins that we did not find very often for the last 10 days. Harbour porpoises were all around in the area, gathering in groups of up to 10 individulas but visible all around the boa
The wind was increasing during lunchtime so we cancelled the tour. Let´s hope that it will get better the next days!
Some brave people went out with us on this windy morning. Unfortunately we didn't spot minke whales this morning, but we found a g
Still very windy and we cancelled the afternoon tour as well
The weather conditions got stronger during this trip, more wind and it became more difficult to spot any wildlife. We were not very lucky on this tour, only spotted one Minke Whale close to the boat but it was surfacing very quickly and dissapeared after surfacing 3 times. Duri
Another very successful tour. This time we first encountered a group of White-beaked dolphins very close to the harbour (we had been missing them for a few days already), great to watch with all their acrobatic skills. Further out on the bay we found at least 4 Minke Whales in
