Starting again from Hafnarfjörður we sailed again into the foggy and rained Faxaflói Bay. Not that far than in the morning tour we found the first 2+ Minke Whales of the afternoon. As they were harder to spot than those in the morning we decided to head further out to the pla

Starting again into the calm Faxaflói Bay we hoped to find the Minke Whales from the morning tour again. Still we had not a lot of swell and in the bay seemed not to be a lot marine life around. So we had to be really really patient and searched for a long time until we had

Again we tried our luck in the windy and not very calm Faxaflói Bay. It was still not very much going on there and we had to search for a long time until we spotted the first group of Harbour Porpoises. As usually they were shy and hard to spot, so we headed on hoping to fin

Report from Elding: I don't think I need to repeat the report from Hafúlan, but I will anyways, WHAT A DAY! We started the tour by seeing nice pod of harbour porpoises. They were just everywhere around us and some of them came very close to us! Little later we saw a minke wh

Report for Hafúlan: Once again the whales and the weather didn't fail us. Right where they have been the last couple of weeks. Minke Whales, Humpback Whales and my favourite at the moment the Harbour Porpoises. There are so many porpoises at the moment it has been just incre

Again we started the tour in this brilliant spring weather and the bay seemed to be even calmer than in the morning. We sailed for a longer time until we spotted the first signs of life, which was a group of White Beaked Dolphins coming really close to the boat. But while we
