Report from Elding: As the wind was increasing in Faxaflói Bay and the sea conditions got worse during the afternoon we decided to move one of our vessels to Sandgerði a harbor on the other side of the Reykjanes peninsular. There we got a shelter from land and we hoped to hav
Report from Hafsúlan: Once more we headed into Faxaflói Bay. The sun was still shining, just the wind picked up a bit, and so the sea wasn't that calm than in the morning. We stopped at Akurey again on our way out to have a look at the Puffins. There was not that many than in
After a very successful day our last tour was a little bit difficult. At the beginning of our tour we saw a group of harbour porpoises. It was very nice since they were close to the boat and all passengers could see them very good. We continued our tour and also found a minke
Report from Hafsulan: At the beginning of our evening tour it was not clear at all that this will be a very special tour, even the highlight tour of today. We went again to the area were we spotted the minke whales this morning. It took a while until we spotted some harbour p

Report from Hafsúlan: It took us a while to spot the first Minke Whale, it didn't surface very often and in between long deep dives. But we could have a quick look at it 2-3 times. Then we decided to try our chance in another area and after a little while we saw quite a big
(Report from Hafsulan) On this tour we tried to find the Humpback whale again, but as nature is very unpredictable it changes very fast and we didn't find it. We did however find one of our favourite Minke Whales called Donut that we have seen many times, every year since 20
(Report from Hafsúlan) The weather was still perfect with the added bonus of the beautiful evening light. We went straightout on this tour and found some Harbour Porpoises about 30-40 minutes into the tour which were entertaining the passengers as they surfaced meters fro
