Today we will be operating on our lovely vessel Eldey for the 13:00 Classic Whale Watching tour. Make sure to dress according to weather, as it is usually colder at sea than on land.

• CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 13:00

Report from Eldey: We started our whale-watching tour with a bang, and right away we found a humpback whale very close to Engey!! This one was called Ekki but instead of being like it is every time we see it, it decided to give us beautiful fluke dives. We took many pictures and a small pod of harbour porpoises was very close to this whale. We left to try to see other stuff. Closer to shore we found some grey seals and lots of great cormorants! We came back to the same area and we found another humpback, that was known as Calamity! It didn't do much compared to the other one, it was just logging on the surface. We then tried another visit to Ekki again and it came suuuper close while doing a fluke dive to the happiness of our passengers.
