• NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00

We left the harbour full of hope and sailed into the darkness of the bay and - BINGO - the northern lights were already waiting for us! There was a green arch that multiplied into at least 5 strands, taking up the whole sky and dancing above us!

This morning, we had beautiful calm seas. After passing Viðey, we saw 2 blows in the distance, and as we got closer we saw it was the same 2 humpback whales we have been seeing for a while now. They were logging right next to Viðey island On our way home we saw 2 grey seals. In the afternoon we also encountered the 2 humpback whales from before.

The night was amazing and there were plenty of stars above our heads as we sailed out. The northern lights began to show themselves at the top of mt. Esja and soon appeared in several arches in the sky. A true spectacle of what Mother Nature can offer.

With a Kp index of 4/9 and some gaps in the sky, we admired the city on our way out, mesmerised by the Winter Lights Festival at Hallgrímskirkja church. We had high hopes for the night, but unfortunately we ended up issuing complimentary tickets.

We went out with flat seas and no wind this morning. Just 15 minutes in the tour, we found 2 humpback whales, and one of them did a spy hop and a breach out of nowhere. We also saw around 15 harbour porpoises! In the afternoon we quickly found the same 2 humpback whales, as well as 6-8 harbour seals, and a lone common dolphin from the previous days!

We sailed out this morning towards a beautiful sunrise and flat seas. We saw our familiar 2 humpback whales, lunging multiple times and even playfully rolling. In the afternoon, we again found our 2 resident humpback whales, along with grey seals and the first minke whale of the year! We were also surprised to see a common dolphin right outside the harbour!

The sky was full of stars, and we could see several constellations and a few shooting stars. We could see a bit of a glow above mt. Esja through our cameras, but never with our eyes. Since the auroras didn't show themselves, we issued complimentary tickets.

The northern lights were visible right from the start. We had a clear sky and were able to enjoy the spectacle in full view as soon as we left the city behind us. We saw arches and curtains even though the intensity changed throughout the tour.

Not too long into the morning tour, we had already found a couple of humpback whales feeding amongst a couple of grey seals. In the afternoon, we again saw the same pair of humpback whales, still actively lunge feeding, as well as the pair of grey seals from before. Our deckhand also caught a glimpse of a common dolphin, but it didn't reappear for the rest of us.

We went out in the morning and it didn't take long before we saw 2 humpback whales! They were swimming around Viðey island and even lunge feeding. In the afternoon we again found the same 2 humpback whales as before. After spending some time with them we moved on and were soon being monitored by about 7 grey seals sunbathing on the rocks.

With a Kp index of 2 and clear skies, we were hopeful that the auroras would bless us with their appearance. We admired mt. Esja, alight with a beautiful moonlight and waited. Unfortunately, however, they never showed up, so we issued complimentary tickets.

This morning we sailed out with some breeze, but calm seas and an orange sunrise poking through. We rather quickly ran into 2 humpback whales, close to Viðey island. We even saw one of them playfully roll on their side a couple times! In the afternoon we again found the 2 humpback whales from this morning, still feeding and showing us their flukes as they dove.

It was a beautiful evening out on the bay with a full moon. The auroras unfortunately did not appear tonight and so we offered our guests complimentary tickets to come out with us on another tour in search for the northern lights.

It was the first morning tour of the year and we had a beautiful sunrise on one side, and a full moon setting on the other. We soon came upon our favourite pair of humpback whales - we even managed to see tail slaps! In the afternoon, we found the same pair of humpback whales from this morning, still feeding, even lunge feeding a few times and a big peduncle throw!
