Throughout the day, we had remarkable sightings starting with a social group of white-beaked dolphins. We also encountered a minke whale and several humpback whales amids the dolphins, some were feeding and one even breached multiple times as well as showing off its tail and pectoral fins with a generous amount of slaps!
Overall today, we saw multiple species displaying special behaviours. We saw a few humpback whales, some pec slapping and lunge feeding while one even breached for us! We also encountered several minke whales feeding, along with playful pods of white-beaked dolphins. Another successful day in the wonderful Faxaflói bay!
Today, we encountered multiple marine species. We saw pods of white-beaked dolphins feeding and playing, a minke whale lunge feeding, and several humpback whales, with one surfacing close to the boat and another lunge feeding. The day ended with even more white-beaked dolphins, some with babies, actively feeding.
Throughout the day, we were blessed with sunny weather and calm seas. We encountered a humpback whale on many occasions that surfaced close to our boat and even breached ans slapped its pectoral fins. We also had a spectacular show of several pods of up to 50 white-beaked dolphins and at least 2 minke whales in total.
Today we experienced the moody nature of the bay, with some ups and downs. Unfortunately, the morning tours had no sightings, resulting in complimentary tickets. However, in the afternoon and evening tours delighted passengers with close encounters with humpback whales, showcasing fluke dives and lunge feeding near the boat.
Unfortunately ALL our tours are cancelled today from Reykjavík, due to weather!
We unfortunately had no luck this morning and therefore decided to issue complimentary tickets. Throughout the rest of the day however, we spotted about 3 humpback whales in total and some minke whales (one of which breached 3-4 times in a row), and also a few pods of approximately 4-15 white-beaked dolphins!
Throughout the day, we had exciting sightings in Faxaflói bay.
