We sailed into the bay with sunny skies this morning, but a little swell. We soon spotted a pod of around 10 white-beaked dolphins. Soon after, we found a humpback whale and then a small pod of harbour porpoises! In the afternoon, we headed again out and spotted 10-15 white-beaked dolphins. They were very curious and came close to the boat, and we then spotted a second pod soon after. A great sighting - and then a blow in the distance - a humpback whale! A great day at sea.

All whale watching tours from Reykjavík have been cancelled due to unfavorable conditions in the bay!

We set out this morning with some swell and headed north to see what we could find. We briefly spotted a blow of a humpback whale but they were very elusive and didn‘t see much of them again. We went close to the coast and then saw a minke whale but again, a very elusive one! They surfaced a few times but far away and before long, we headed back to the harbour. Since the sightings weren't of great quality, we gave our passengers complimentary tickets to try again another day. The winds were picking up and we cancelled the afternoon tour for the safety and comfort of our passengers.

With a little drizzle, and a bit of wind, we headed out to sea and within a few minutes spotted our first minke whale! After watching a few surface sequences, we headed further and our next sighting was 4-5 white-beaked dolphins, another minke, and then a humpback whale! We had a nice fluke dive from the humpback before heading back to shore. In the afternoon, we again spotted a minke whale very close to the harbour! And then another, and another - three minke whales in total! We headed further out to sea but with no luck, and decided to watch our minke whales again! Another great day in Faxaflói bay.

We headed out this morning with overcast skies and a slight breeze, and soon encountered a minke whale, one of 4 we spotted on the trip! Then, 2 humpback whales appeared and we had some good sightings although they were diving for longer periods of time. In the afternoon, we again saw 2 minke whales soon into the trip, and further out to sea, found a humpback whale and another minke! Whilst we were waiting for them, we also saw 4 harbour porpoises! A great day at sea.

On an overcast but dry morning, we set sail and after some time, spotted big blows on the horizon. We set course there and suddenly spotted a humpback whale breaching from afar - a spectacular sight! Two minke whales also appeared and we had a great look at all three animals before heading back to the harbour. In the afternoon, the tour started with two minke whales just outside of the harbour. We continued our tour and soon spotted 5 harbour porpoises and then 2 humpback whales, slapping their pectoral fins on the water. A great end to the day!

We set sail this morning eager to see what was in the bay today! Soon, we spotted the first blow of a humpback whale and spent some time there, before it breached in front of us - a brilliant sight! On our way back after this show, we also spotted 2 minke whales, a great morning. In the afternoon, we spotted a minke whale soon into the trip, along with a lot of birdlife.

We left the harbour with good weather this morning and sailed into Faxaflói bay. We soon found 3 harbour porpoises and then 3 minke whales surfacing many times. Carrying on further into the bay, we found 9 white-beaked dolphins and soon a humpback whale which breached in front of the boat! In the afternoon, we set out and soon spotted a minke whale and then a humpback whale feeding, with more minke whales around. A brilliant day at sea.

It was the first day of summer today, and we headed out with some overcast skies and soon spotted multiple minke whales as we headed out from the harbour into our usual searching area. As we searched, we had more and more minke whales everywhere, a total of eight, with many lunge feeding and surfacing all around the boat during the tour. In the afternoon, we again had a minke whale soon into the tour. As we sailed further as had two harbour porpoises and six white-beaked dolphins with even more minkes in the bay. A brilliant day at sea, with minke whales everywhere!

This morning we set sail with a little fog but otherwise good visibility. Right away, we spotted two minke whales and soon after, one humpback whale. We then sailed a bit further out and found 6 white-beaked dolphins and another minke whale nearby. On our way back, we had even more minke whales and two harbour porpoises - a brilliant morning. In the afternoon, we again spotted two minke whales very soon into the tour, and then a pod of 7 white-beaked dolphins - a very curious bunch! Then, a humpback whale was spotted, and some more harbour porpoises on the way back. Just when we thought that was it, a minke whale started breaching on the way back into the harbour - a rare but brilliant sight!

On our morning tour, with great weather, we set off and soon spotted 1 minke whale. We went further out and some fog came in, spotting 2 harbour porpoises on the way. More Minke Whales were popping up everywhere, and we spotted 2 pods of white-beaked dolphins as well. A great morning. In the afternoon, much of the fog had cleared, and on our way in, we spotted 2 minke whales and 5 harbour porpoises. Further into the bay, we had a humpback whale sighting, and then around 23 white-beaked dolphins! 3 more humpback whales also popped up in this same area, a true feeding frenzy! What a day!

We left the harbour with beautiful sunshine and flat sea conditions, and soon spotted a minke whale coming up once. After some time, we spotted 2 humpback whales as well as more minke whales coming up around us. On the way back in, we also spotted 3 harbour porpoises. In the afternoon, we had similarly great weather and spotted our first minke whale near the islands. Further out to sea, we had areas with many more minke whales, around 10 in total. A brilliant end to the day!

We sailed out with a bit more wind and waves than yesterday, and after some sailing, briefly spotted a minke whale quick on it‘s way! Soon after, a humpback whale was sighted and we had some good sightings of that before heading back. In the afternoon, we found two minke whales in the shallows near Viðey & Engey Islands, with some incredible bird-life in the bay as well. We had some more sightings of minke whales before heading back to the harbour after a great day at sea.
