- NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00
Due to unfavorable weather conditions, we have decided to cancel the Northern Lights Cruise tonight!
We had quite strong winds and rain, but the sea conditions were okay. It didn't take us that long before we saw a harbour seal, followed by our friend Banana the humpback whale. We then saw another 2-3 seals, and after quite a sail searching for other wildlife, we returned to Banana and got one final farewell before it was time to head back to the harbour!
It was a windy day, but the seas were calm nonetheless. We searched around for a bit and eventually found our first humpback whale. This individual was frantically travelling and likely in the search for food. After a while we found a second humpback whale! It was our resident winter whale Banana, still calmly hanging around in the area as in the last months!

Tonight we had clear skies and calm seas. The moment we left the city behind us, we could truly admire the spectacle before us. The sky was filled with northern lights in many shapes that we got to enjoy for the duration of the whole tour!
We were in for a windy afternoon today, but that didn't stop us from sailing out of the harbour. After passing Engey island, we spotted a blow in the distance - it was our resident humpback whale; Banana! It was feeding and we managed to see it fluke many times. Despite the brisk northerly wind, we ended our tour happy with plenty of hot chocolate in hand!

The forecast promised nice gaps in the clouds and a good KP-index. We had to have a little patience, but after a while the northern lights showed up. Unfortunately they were very faint, so we decided to hand out complimentary tickets!
We had wonderful weather today with calm seas and blue skies. We started our search between the islands and then got word of a humpback whale nearby - it was our friend Banana! It started logging at the surface right next to our boat, and then, all of a sudden, it breached! We also spotted 2 harbour porpoises very briefly before they disappeared again.

Not long after we sailed out, we saw northern lights through the clouds above Akrafjall mountain. They lingered for a bit but as they never got stronger, we decided to gave out complimentary tickets so our guests can join us again another night.
We went out in beautiful weather, the sky was drenched in pastel colours and the sea was flat. We sailed close to the Hvalfjörður where we spotted a harbour seal. We then got word over the radio that there was a humpback whale close by. We got a good view, but was traveling fast and we could see on the fish finder there was lots of fish around, so it was likely feeding.

Tonight, the KP index was a 3/9, and before we even sailed out of the harbour we could already see northern lights! At one point they were fading, but the sky gave us bright stars, constellations, and a very long and visibly burning shooting star as compensation.
We were lucky to find a humpback whale right as we left the harbour on this sunny but windy day. We got a good look at it searching for food and fluke diving. We then went for a cruise around the islands and found a total of 4 grey and harbour seals that were curiously looking at us. Then, we also got a glimpse at a small pod of 5 shy harbour porpoises.

We had strong northerly winds today, making it fairly rocky on board. After only 5 minutes of sailing, we saw a blow and spotted a humpback whale! It was busy feeding and moved quite quickly, and eventually it lunged at the surface! After a while, just as we were about to move on, it then decided to breach five times! We also saw 2 harbour seals bottling at the surface.
It was another beautiful winter's day in Reykjavík with clear blue skies and flat calm seas. As soon as we left the harbour, we spotted one of our resident humpback whales for the winter, Banana, who did a full breach out of the water! We then saw about 16 grey- and harbour seals in all as well, with some resting on ice floats and others feeding!
