We were not lucky with the Northern Lights this evening due to heavy cloud coverage. Tonight was not our night. We offered our passengers complimentary tickets in the hope their next experience would be better.

This humpback was not very easy to spot, moving fast and not showing the tail so we decided to try another that we knew other boats could see earlier further away. We went, found the blow of the animal and approached carefully. Then the humpback whale breached!

We decided to check out the two humpbacks our colleagues had found in Kollafjörður, super close to land. The waters there were so calm, the opposite of the ocean out in the bay. It was magical to see two humpback whales so close to land surface in the calm ocean, with the mountains and islands surrounding us. 

As we were cancelled the last days we were expecting some swell but nothing compared to yesterdays forecast. It took us a while to see our first whale sighting, a humpback whale after at about 2 hours into the tour.

There are unfavorable weather conditions throughout Sunday, so we have made the decision to cancel our premium RIB tours, with the comfort and safety of our passengers in mind. The 0900 Classic Whale Watching was cancelled and also the classic tours at 1300 and 1900.

The highlight of the tour was an atlantic puffin that, for some reason, had not left the breeding stations, and was very nice to see. No signs of whales were spotted so in the end we gave passengers, who were very positive and understanding, complimentary tickets for another tour.

There are unfavourable weather conditions throughout Friday, so we have made the decision to cancel a number of our tours, with the comfort and safety of our passengers in mind. Our classic tour at 1900 is on, but all other tours have been cancelled.
