After about an hour of waiting we only had the Imagine Peace Tower as a light to took at. But then the northern lights started to come through. They were quite weak to begin with but then started to shine really bright between the clouds!

Today’s whale watching adventure saw a humpback whale near Lundey island. We hung out with it while it was feeding, and though it took a while to fluke, the excitement on board was contagious once it did! Mount Esja looked stunning, all snowy and picturesque, and to top it off, we had Christmas tunes playing throughout the tour!
It was quite a windy day today. After sailing past Viðey island, we spotted a blow from our first of 3 humpback whales! We also saw 2 grey seals in this area too. The other pair of whales we saw would surface very regularly, meaning we always got a great look at them as they dove. We all made sure to warm up inside on our way home!

Tonight was a rollercoaster of anticipation and surprises! As the night unfolded, the aurora was a bit shy, so we issued complimentary tickets for a future trip. Then, a pair of humpback whales were seen feeding together in the night!
We were lucky once again, to quickly see a blow and splash so close to land. We had found ourselves a humpback whale that was constantly chasing fish around and lunge feeding! We then saw another 2 humpback whales, chilling next to Viðey island. Soon they all did fluke dives and our time with the whales came to an end!

The sky was clear, and we could even spot Mars and Jupiter shining bright. While we didn't see any auroras tonight, we did find a couple of humpback whales! In the end we of course issued complimentary tickets for a future tour.
It was a calm, sunny day in Reykjavík. We sailed around Viðey island and soon fund 2 feeding humpback whales! The crew determined that one of them was the entangled whale from a couple of days ago, now swimming freely! We also saw a curious harbour seal popping out of the water and about 3-4 more close to shore.
We quickly spotted two humpback whales travelling together. Then we found the entangled humpback whale from last night's Northern Lights Cruise. As we saw a fourth humpback whale, the Coastguard rolled in to rescue the whale from its ropes! We then sailed back home in a mini snowstorm under delightful Christmas music.

After a snowy morning, we were looking forward to heading out into the bay to find some wildlife! It didn't take us long before we found a couple of feeding humpback whales! We were treated to plenty of fluke dives from both whales as we split our time between them. We then found our third humpback whale also feeding, a little further away.

The clouds separated, but the northern lights never appeared, so we issued complimentary tickets. We did however see a tangled humpback whale, leading us to alert the authorities as we headed back home with mixed feelings..
UPDATE: the whale has been freed!

It took us about 20 minutes to see the first marine mammal, and it was one of at least 3 puppy-faced harbour seals. After about half an hour, we saw a blow from a humpback whale! We could even see its body shape through the water as it was swimming close to the water, making fluke prints on the surface, making it easy to track.
