We quickly found 2 humpback whales surrounding the islands of Viðey and Lundey. Staying with each, one at a time, we had the chance to see 2 very different behaviours: feeding and resting. As the sun started to set over the appearing clouds, we started heading back, luckily noticing small pods of harbour porpoises on our way home.

With good weather and little to no clouds, we were hopeful for tonight. We ended up waiting a long time, but in the last hour, a stable clear green arch of northern lights appeared overr the mountains of Esja and Akrafjall!
Our tour started under a white powdered snow storm. After a few minutes of sailing, the head of a grey seal popped up out of nowhere. Then, a humpback whale came up to get some air and this individual seemed to be resting close to the surface, but we got a few good looks at its fluke and determined it was our friend from yesterday!

Today was a bit windy, but we enjoyed nice calm seas. It didn't take us long to find 2 humpback whales between the islands! We split our time between the two, and as they got sleepy, we were lucky to be able to watch them super close to the boat, resting. As we headed back, we all warmed up with some nice hot chocolate!
We had calm seas waiting for us as we sailed into the bay. After only 13 minutes we had already found a feeding humpback whale! Since we didn't want to overstay our welcome, we headed further out and sailed towards Hvalfjörður, where we spotted another humpback whale and even saw a third humpback whale on our way home!

An hour into the tour, a big gap opened up and we could see Jupiter - and then we heard a loud noise - it turned out to be 2 humpback whales feeding! Despite this happy surprise, we saw no auroras so we issued complimentary tickets!

The forecast was good, indicating strong magnetic activity, and the skies were super clear. Tonight did not disappoint! As soon as we left the marina we already had northern lights, stretching in a wide arch, all the way to mt. Esja.
It was the first whale watching tour of December, and although the weather was chilly, the sky was clear and blue. After 30 minutes, we spotted 2 humpback whales that were surfacing regularly and fluking a lot. We also saw a pod of 2-4 shy harbour porpoises and one more humpback whale as we started to make our way back home.
On the last morning tour of the year, we sailed out into darkness, with little wind. After about 30 minutes we spotted a humpback whale very close to our boat! In the afternoon we quickly found our friendly feeding humpback whale once more! We also spotted 2 harbour seals before coming back to the whale on our way home.

Shortly after we left port, the skies cleared out and we got very hopeful. However, the auroras did not show themselves tonight, so after a bit of sightseeing, we sailed back home and issued complimentary tickets for another time.
