The afternoon started with a helicopter rescue drill, and soon we spotted 3-4 harbour porpoises and then again we found 6 humpback whales, one even performing a peduncle throw close to our boat!

Despite a promising forecast, the cloud cover only grew thicker. Initially, we could see northern lights through our cameras, but we decided to issue complimentary tickets, so our passengers could try their luck again another time.

We set off this morning excited to find wildlife. At one point we were surrounded by what felt like 100s of black legged kittiwakes and sooty shearwaters. We found two solo white-beaked dolphins and a minke whale! Sailing out again this afternoon, we found 6 minke whales and a small pod of 8 harbour porpoises around the islands near Reykjavik.

Before we even left the harbour, we saw our first northern lights! They were faint to start, but soon stretched across the whole sky. They were dancing above us and all around us, fading sometimes and then growing stronger again.
