A little bit more difficult this afternoon. We sailed again to the same area where we were previously and there were a few Minke whales out there. They usually just surfaced once and then disappeared for a long time so it was difficult to spot them. At the end of the tour, t
Again a pretty wet and windy trip, but we headed out in spite of the weather. A few passengers were able to spot Harbour Porpoises on the way out, but they disappeared quite quickl
The wind picked up a bit this late afternoon tour, but the whales were still quite amazing. We had a few Minke whales and a lot of feeding group of seabirds mainly gulls, Kittiwakes and Puffins, too. One Minke whale in particular stayed in the area and was feeding moving fro
The whales didn't behave much better in the evening. We spotted several times a blow but the whales to whom they belonged, never show up. There were a few minke whales in the area but they weren't cooperative at all. In the end we spotted one minke whale a few times far away
We started the tour at Akurey to visit the puffins. Then we headed out on Faxaflói to look for the whales. The search was not difficult as they had not travelled far since our last tour. The minke whales behaved much like earlier today, and they were just as many. Another go
We sailed out again and we had to go a bit further out than this morning. Whales moved a bit more offshore but at the end we spotted them. Many minke whales, then we has two sightings of white-beaked dolphins. Seabirds were really amazing , too.

Still pretty rough out there this afternoon and we had a bit of a bumpy ride. In spite of the waves, we were able to spot a few Minke whales in one area, often surfacing about 100m away but sometimes quite close to the boat! Again lots of Gannets around as well as all the other
The weather was not perfect, but better than in the previous tours ;-) Still a bit rough but we headed out on Faxaflói none the less and got our best sightings of the day! We found a really good area with large flocks of feeding birds and were lucky to get a good look at a c
The wind had picked up a little bit but the conditions were still nice out on the bay. This evening there were almost no seabirds out on the bay and we weren't as lucky as in the previous tours. The food wasn't close to the surface but located deeper so the sightings weren't
