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: It's a very foggy day, but the sea looks calm and serene so we head out into the clouds to look for some cetaceans! We were hoping the fog would clear out, we even got a glimpse of the top of Esja but it never got better. We saw several birds feeding on the surface and even some resting. We got to see a rare weather event, a white rainbow which was quite nice to see! There were at least 3 grey seals near the islands but they swam away from the boat. All in all, we searched everywhere and not a single fin was found. We offered complimentary tickets for our passengers to have another shot on another day.
