Northern Lights Diary
- NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 21:00
This evening was windless and full of stars, making us hopeful that we would get lucky. We sailed out of the harbour, having a look at the beam of the Imagine Peace Tower on Viðey island. Even though the conditions were perfect tonight, the activity never picked up, so we offered our passengers complimentary tickets.

We sailed out in Faxaflói, admiring sunrise for a while, when we spotted a tall blow in the distance which turned out to be a humpback whale, then a pod of 6-7 white-beaked dolphins, travelling calmly. In the afternoon we found 2 pods of harbour porpoises that surfaced nicely and then also about 10 minke whales!

We had lovely calm conditions on the water today, although it was bitterly cold. In all, we spotted 2 harbour porpoises, 3-5 minke whales including one that came a bit closer and about 3-5 white-beaked dolphins on our tours today, including a smaller juvenile in this pod sticking very close to its mother!

It was a silent night, we could see some stars but soon the clouds came and covered the sky. Unfortunately we weren't able to see the fantastic northern lights, so we handed out complimentary tickets to our passengers to have another opportunity to view them in the future.

There were gaps predicted in the clouds however we were not lucky enough for them to form. We enjoyed the music and hot chocolates but sadly were not successful in seeing the aurora borealis. Therefore we gave out complimentary tickets so that everyone is able to have another chance to try again.

This morning we saw a few white-beaked dolphins and a big blow that we were unable to follow. In the afternoon we saw a huge splash that belonged to a breaching humpback whale (likely the owner of the blow from the morning), accompanied by 5-10 white beaked dolphins and about 5 minke whales in the same area!

As we sailed out we noticed the clouds were quite thin and we could see the stars which is a promising sign. As nature is always unpredictable, we unfortunately weren't successful in seeing the aurora tonight so in the ended we handed out complimentary tickets.
