We went out on our morning tour full of hope, with slightly choppy seas and windy conditions. We search around the islands, where we had seen whales over the last weeks, and saw many big flocks of birds, but unfortunately we were not able to find any larger life in the sea, so we gave out complimentary tickets. Our afternoon tour was cancelled due to the worsening weather in the bay.

There was a little rain at the start of the day, but otherwise good conditions at sea, and we soon spotted our 2 humpback whales on our morning tour, with a rainbow appearing as well. In the afternoon, we had a bit more wind but luckily mostly flat seas, and we found our resident 2 humpback whales after a short search - a nice day at sea!
There were some winds today, but the temperature had gone up. On our morning tour we found 2 humpback whales after 30 minutes of searching, the same individuals we have been spotting recently. In the afternoon, we found the 2 humpback whales again, Banana & Split, as well as spotting 2 grey seals towards the end.
With a kp index of 4/9, we were excited to go out this evening, with slightly clouded sky but some gaps. Sure enough, we spotted the northern lights soon after leaving the harbour, another beautiful evening at sea.
It started off as a cold day with good conditions at sea. On our morning tour, we found 2 humpback whales close to Engey island, and spent some time with them as they were diving. In the afternoon, we found 1 humpback whale near Lundey island and found our second humpback whale around 1km away. On both tours, we had great sightings of harbour and grey seals near Viðey island.
As soon as we left the harbour, we could already see an arch across the sky. Sure enough, the northern lights were dancing above us, and "exploded" at one point, visible across the whole sky. A fantastic evening at sea!
A beautiful day - cold but calm. The morning tour started off with 2 humpback whales spotted close to Lundey, and a brief sighting of 2-3 harbour porpoises. In the afternoon, after some cruising, we found our 2 humpback whales again, along with 2 harbour porpoises spotted by some lucky passengers.
