After a cancelled morning tour, we sailed into the bay and spotted a small pod of 2-4 playful white-beaked dolphins swimming close and feeding around us. As we continued, fog enveloped us, leading us to an amazing sighting of 3 humpback whales including Neila, Pep, and a mystery companion all calm and coming very close to our boat.

In the morning, we encountered 6 humpback whales, including familiar individuals, with one tail slapping and peduncle throwing. The afternoon started with a helicopter rescue drill, and soon we spotted 3-4 harbour porpoises and then again we found 6 humpback whales, one even performing a peduncle throw close to our boat!

Due to unfavourable conditions, all our whale watching tours from Reykjavík have been cancelled today!

In the morning, we navigated large waves before spotting a playful pod of 6-7 white-beaked dolphins, 3 quick minke whales and two familiar humpback whales, Davy Jones II and Neila, feeding together! In the afternoon, we again found humpback whales Davy Jones II and Neila, calmly surfacing and even passing gracefully under our boat at times!

• CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 9:00, 13:00

This morning, we saw a minke whale, some harbour porpoises, a pod of white-beaked dolphins with a small calf, and four humpback whales! This afternoon’s tour also saw a pod of 5-6 harbour porpoises, a friendly minke whale with a nearby pod of 5 white-beaked dolphins, and 4 curious humpback whales. A true "Royal Flush" of marine life!

The morning tour was cancelled due to weather, but we were able to sail in the afternoon and encountered 3-7 harbour porpoises, followed by a bottling grey seal! Later we found a pod of 4 white-beaked dolphins that vanished, but reappeared with Flak the humpback whale, and individual we usually see close to Reykjavik in winter!

We set off this morning excited to find wildlife. At one point we were surrounded by what felt like 100s of black legged kittiwakes and sooty shearwaters. We found two solo white-beaked dolphins and a minke whale! Sailing out again this afternoon, we found 6 minke whales and a small pod of 8 harbour porpoises around the islands near Reykjavik.

We set sails on our morning tour and were soon surprised by a quick moving minke whale. Moving further, we encountered an elusive humpback whale and 8 harbour porpoises. Finally, a second minke whale appeared, much friendlier and even treating us to two lunge-feeds. The afternoon tour was cancelled due to weather.

We sailed towards Hafnarfjörður this morning and were thrilled to find 4 humpback whales. In the afternoon, we sailed from Hafnarfjörður, quickly encountering 4 resting humpbacks. We later saw 4 pods of harbour porpoises and 2 minke whales and a surprise humpback among them, topped off with an unexpected breach close to Reykjavík!

• PREMIUM WHALE TOUR | 10:00, 13:00, 15:00

Despite cancelling our Premium tours due to weather, we were able to go on the Classic tours today. In the morning, we encountered a minke whale before spotting a familiar humpback whale. The afternoon brought challenging conditions, but we persevered and found another minke whale followed by a large humpback whale near Hafnarfjörður!
