We then found another 2 humpback whales and 3 grey seals! In the afternoon we were met with snow but only 10 minutes after departure we had spotted 3 humpback whales!

We had a few snow storms during this tour but it just added to the fun! Not long after setting off we saw blows of 2 humpback whales near Viðey island. They were feeding most of the time before one of them started to rest a bit. Without having to search for too long we saw another humpback whale and about 6-7 grey seals.
