Weather got even better than during the morning. We came back to the feeding ground and Minkes were there, feeding, mainly with birds like gannets and auks around. 3-4 dolphins were still in the area and we could enjoy them for a while.

This afternoon we moved the boat to Keflavík harbour, as we have done several times before when we have this wind direction. We had shelter from the land so for most of the trip the sea was nice and calm. We spotted several Minke whales throughout the trip in one area where
On this tour we got two brief visitors: two white-beaked dolphins which suddenly appeared in front of the boat and bowrode. Then they left as suddenly as the came. After that we spent some time searching and spotted a very active group of harbour porpoises. They swam very fa

We sailed from Reykjavík harbour on this beautiful Easter Sunday. The wind was a bit strong, but it wasn't too bad ;-) First we caught a glimpse of a group of harbour porpoises, but they were very quick to disappear. We sailed on f
Again no whales! And again we searched a big, big area, and we went further out, but couldn´t spot any whales. The weather got worse during the day and it was pretty cold on this tour. Well, bad luck today, but as we always say, this is nature, too, even if we don't like it.
We sailed again from Grindavík, and the wind had picked up a little more, but still the sea was pretty calm. We spotted a group of Orca at the beginning of the trip, and after we left them we sailed and sailed but didn't find any more whales, unfortunately. We made a stop at
The wind picked up a bit but still the whale watching conditions were rather good. Our sightings for this tour were again two different family groups of white-beaked dolphins. Both groups were really active and nice to watch. They showed a lot of interest in the boat and app
At the end of the morning tour we left the dolphins rather far out in Faxaflói bay. Therefore we were very surprised to find them again very close to the harbour. They were as funny and curious as in the morning. Once again we always had several white-beaked dolphins with us
The weather was at its best, no wind at all and good visibility as we headed out on the bay. After 30 minutes we saw a big group of Harbour Porpoises, swimming slowly and came close to the boat several times. Then another group and ten minutes later we saw the first of many
Only 15 minutes out we encountered a big group of White beaked Dolphins. They turned out to be quite playful and came very close to the boat. Further out two groups of Harbour Porpoises, one of them extremely tame and curios. After that we sailed for a long time until one of
The rain stopped and the sun came out, the wind calmed down almost completely, very good whale watching conditions. We knew it might be difficult to find the humpback again, but we tried. It wasn't any longer where we left it in the morning. We decided to search farther out
We started the tour from Reykjavík harbour this time. The sea was calm but it seemed like the ocean was empty, even no birds. Then we spotted a little group of Harbour porpoises. This group was very shy and disappeared very quickly. After a while the captain saw a group of W
This tour was speacial, indeed!!! We spent more than two hours searching for whales, but the ocean seemed to be empty. The dolphins were gone and even the birds were gone. Very dissapointing for every body, but I tried to explain that this is nature and that it can happen fr
The wind had picked up a lot, but we trusted that the humpback would be close enough to the harbour and didn't cancel the tour. Good that we tried! Shortly after leaving the harbour we were surrounded by even more feeding birds than in the morning. The gannets were especiall
Another wonderful tour! Actually a bit similar to the one in the morning. We started in Hafnarfjörður harbour and like in the morning we soon spotted jumping dolphins in the distance. There was a lot of herring in the area, which was the reason for all the playful and feedin
We went out at 13:00 in wonderful weather, sunshine but quite cold. After an hour’s sailing we saw the first White Beaked Dolphins and there seemed to be many around. At this time we were outside Hafnarfjörður. It took us some time to find a bigger whale but finally a blow a
Again we went out on Faxaflói to look for whales. The weather was colorful to say the least. Sun and a few minutes later snow, and then again sun. We soon spotted the same minke as in the nine o'clock tour and then we went on to try to find the Orcas, but had no luck. Then a
Shortly before departure we received exciting news from a friend who had gone fishing from Njarðvík harbour this morning. He had just spotted a couple of humpbacks and several white beaked dolphins close by his usual fishing spot. We decided to head over to Njarðvík, althoug
