It got quiet out there in Faxaflói bay. Suddenly there was not as much life as in the morning. The whales were taking a siesta :-) and we had to spend some time searching for them. At the end of the tour though we had spotted three minke whales and one dolphin.

What a wonderful morning: perfect weather conditions and many different and really interesting sightings. First we spotted a small group of harbour porpoises and watched them for a few minutes. After that we saw a large group of white-beaked dolphins in the distance. We went over to them and they approached the boat a lot. Then suddenly almost all the dolphins breached simultaneously, several times. They were forming a line and seemed to be chasing a school of fish. We almost couldn't believe it a little later when we spotted a huge blow in the distance and got the chance to watch two humpback whales. They were travelling and swam about eight kilometers while we watched them. At the same time as we had the humpbacks around us, some minke whales showed up and made our wait for the humpback more interesting. At the end of the tour we had seen our four most common species! A nice morning tour!
