Report from Elding: We once again started our tour at Engey to see the puffins on this new island that they seem to be colonising, it was great, loads sitting on the cliff tops and flying around. We then sailed out to the areas were we were yesterday in the hope of spotting whales. We did get a quick glimpse of Harbour Porpoises but if you didn´t know what to look for they were a bit difficult in spotting. There were quite a few birds flying around too which was nice like Gannets and Fulmars enjoying the strong north easterly winds. Passengers were given complimentary tickets and hopefully we we see them again with more whales in the bay.

Tour at 09:00

Report from Hafsúlan: When we sailed out on our Sunday morning tour it was a little bit rainy and windy. We saw many puffins on the puffin island Lundey and then we sailed for a long time in our bay but unfortunately we did not find any whale on this tour. Therefore we gave out complimentary tickets.

Seabirds seen on todays tours include: Puffins, Guillemots, Eider Ducks, Arctic Terns, Gannets, Cormorants, Storm Petrels, Fulmars, Kittiwakes and Black-backed Gulls.
