We spotted 3 minke whales in the morning, plus several pods of harbour porpoises along our way. In the afternoon, we encountered elusive minke whales and issued complimentary tickets due to limited sightings. Later, we enjoyed playful encounters with three pods of 16 white-beaked dolphins, including mother-calf pairs.

We set off with a beautiful starry night sky and could even see Jupiter above Mt Esja! Then after a while, we finally got to see 2 big arches of northern lights. They lit up the sky to the north changing shape a lot, fading before brightening again!

Even before leaving the harbour we could see the northern lights and they only continued to get brighter and brighter! We hardly had a moment all night where they were not visible. At times the whole sky was green and even pink!

This morning, we spotted a fast-moving minke whale and later enjoyed a playful encounter with a humpback whale near the boat. In the afternoon, another humpback whale treated us to an incredible breach and tail slapping. The evening tour encountered a minke whale, and enjoyed a spectacular sunset near Akranes.

What a magical night! The skies were completely clear and the forecast was excellent. The lights were seen as we began to board our boat and while we drove out into the bay, the northern lights put on a constant show!

Throughout the day, we enjoyed sightings of several minke whales, including one near the harbour that treated us to an impressive lunge feed. Later, a majestic humpback whale surfaced, thrilling us with a peduncle throw. In the afternoon, we encountered playful white-beaked dolphins bow riding, followed by more minke whales feeding.

Tonight, we were blessed with the most amazing northern lights! We were spoiled with at least a dozen successive auroras of every shape and in every direction from the start. We could even see an intense purple colour!

This morning we saw a feeding pod of around 8 white-beaked dolphins, jumping close to the boat. We later encountered 3 minke whales, with one surfacing near the boat. In the afternoon, we spotted another 3 minke whales feeding, surfacing briefly before disappearing, and ending with a great close-up sighting.

We headed out with a good prediction of the northern lights and we saw them as soon as we were out of the harbour. They stayed with us the whole tour, arching across the sky, occasionally dancing from green to red.

Today we had amazing visibility and flat seas. We saw about 5 pods of white-beaked dolphins, a couple of feeding minke whales and 2 harbour porpoises. In the evening we sailed for a good while before we saw 3 minke whales passing by us quickly, resulting in us issuing complimentary tickets so our passengers could try again another time.

We sailed into Faxaflói bay under a beautifully clear sky, with a gentle breeze stirring the air. Unfortunately, the northern lights didn't make an appearance tonight, but we made sure to offer complimentary tickets to all our passengers.

Due to unfavourable weather conditions, we have decided to CANCEL the Northern Lights Cruise tonight!

We sailed out into a chilly northern wind this morning, but at least the sun was shining on our faces. We covered a good area of the bay in search of cetaceans, but sadly we were not in lucky today and ended up offering all passengers complimentary tickets. The rest of today's tours were cancelled due to weather.
