The wind had picked up a little on this tour and the whales were a lot further out than previous tours. However, we found them. We saw at least 1 Minke Whale on this tour but maybe two but they stayed quite a distance away. Then we had Harbour Porpoises which were surfacing
The weather was still really good when we headed out to find the whales. After a short time we found a minke whale! This one was being little bit hard to follow so we decided to head further out. Only few minuets later we spotted our second minke whale. We were able to follo
Still sunshine weather when we headed out to our last tour for today. After we reached the whale watching area we spotted a Minke Whale that we could follow for some time. We also spotted the Harbour Porpoises again, quite a big pod this evening. Then we headed further out a

Again we headed straight out to Faxaflói bay, it took some time until we spotted a blow, but nothing else than that we waited around but never saw the whale it self only the blow. After a while again some passengers spotted a whale pretty close by, but once again it was never
Now the wind had picked up when we headed out to Faxaflói. After some time we spotted a minke whale in the waves. This minke came up 6-7 times for us and sometimes only 40 meters away from us! Then this one swam away and we had to search a big area. No more whales today, but
A very unsuccessful tour in all accounts, still quite rough weather, no whales, no puffins and hardly any seabirds. Lets hope this isn't the end of the summer season. But what is down can only go up. What was nice to see was the beautiful light over Reykjavik. Complimentary
Report from Elding: We sailed out in a sunny but windy weather, again we found the minke whale really close to land between Engey and Viðey and also really close to Viðey or only maybe 5 meters away. It surfaced very close to the boat very calmly and all of a sudden it breac

We headed straight out to Faxaflói to find the whales. After a while we found a minke whale. This whale was slowly surfacing just next to us, only 20 meters away from the boat, so many times! We stayed with that minke whale for a while and it was very lovely, being very clos
We headed straight out into Faxaflói Bay and after about 40 minutes of sailing we found our first Minke Whale. However this Minke had company already from another whale watching vessel so we stayed with it only for a short time. Then we headed out a little further and found
We went straight out into the whale watching area; the weather was perfect and the visibility as well. We spotted a group of White Beaked Dolphins passing by but after that we didn't spot anything. We enjoyed the sunset and the beautiful weather so in spite of no whales, the
Report from Elding: On our way out we spotted a small splash most likely from Harbour Porpoises, but when we slowed down we didn't see it again so we kept on going. 30 minutes later there was another splash and we spotted the pod of Harbour Porpoises this time. We stayed wit
Once again the midnight sun was breath taking and seeing Reykjavik lit up on the way back was the perfect ending to the tour. We started our adventure at Lundey Puffin Island and saw maybe 5-6 Puffins hanging out with the numerous Black Guillemots (more than I've ever seen t
Not a very successful tour with regards to the cetaceans but it was a breath taking sunset and beautiful to see Reykjavik city lit up. But complimentary tickets to all the passengers.
This tour did not let us down either, we saw Harbour Po

We started by seeing the puffins in Akurey. After that we sailed out to Faxaflói in a very nice weather. We spotted a Minke Whale which was avoiding us the whole time but still we managed to get close to it. All of a sudden another minke came just 7 meters from the boat and
Report from Elding II: The Puffins that were around Akurey this time flew quietly around the island, after we left the island a long search for the whales began. But it was worth the while watching the beautiful sun sit down and the burning sky and then all of a sudden we we
After visiting the puffin island, Akurey we headed out to Faxaflói. It took us a little while to find the first minke whale, and this one was being little bit shy. A little later we found another minke and we could stay with this one for a while. This minke surfaced many tim
What a beautiful evening. One of the best sunsets I've seen this summer and really nice seeing Reykjavik lit up on our way back to the harbour. We started at Akurey and there wasn't many there, it was like spotting Waldo but nice to think they are snuggled up in their burrow
