✔ TOUR ON SCHEDULE | 10:00
Report from Elding: It fells nice when it feels like summer! The day started with some of our passengers asking if we were having sun cream, and that is always a very positive start. The tour started smoothly, very very easy ride. The landscape was shining under the sun, the water surface was glowing like we were sailing in diamonds and there was a smile in our faces. It didn’t take long since we saw the firs signs of whales. A minke whale came to our way, disappeared, and then all the sudden was behind us like sneaking a pic on our cruise! After we resumed our transect we started seeing blows at the distance, close to some massive flocks of birds, It was when we were a little bit closer that we realized we were surrendered by resting humpback whales, up to 7 at some point. The sightings were incredibly close, and we could see every detail of a particular whale that was very chilled with our presence. On the way back we spotted up to 3 more minke whales, making this a trip to remember!
