Tour at 13:00

Unfortunately, neither of our two boats (Elding and Hafsúlan) which went out were able to spot any whales! Our guide and first mate on Elding spotted a big blow of the Humpback whale about 300 metres away, but it went for a deep dive and we weren't able to spot it again. Our passengers were offered a complimentary trip with us, whenever they get the chance to come again.

The weather was quite nice and calm this morning as we set off to find the whales. We sailed for quite a while before we found our first whale. We found a Minke whale and a Humpback whale. The Humpback was very difficult to follow so we sailed on a bit further and we saw a big blow in the distance. We found another Humpback whale and spotted another Minke whale as we sailed towards the Humpback!  We got a really close look at this Humpback whale but had to leave it shortly because our time had run out
