Tour at 13:00

Report from Hafsúlan and Elding: The sun was shining high in the sky and there wasn´t a cloud in sight as we set off from Reykjavík. And aside from some very chilly winds the weather for the tour was mostly excellent, we could even see the glacier Snæfellsjökull from very far away. As both boats set out we headed in different directions, near Arkranes Elding spotted Northern Gannets dive bombing the water and a number of other gulls also feeding. Hafsúlan spotted a small pod of Harbour Porpoises but they also stayed briefly and the porpoises disappeared. As there were no whales or dolphins seen on the tour at the end we handed out complimentary tickets.
