Today we will be operating on our lovely vessel Eldey for the 9:00 Whale Watching tour. Make sure to dress appropriately for the tours as it is always colder on sea than on land. 

• CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 9:00
• CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 13:00

 COVID-19: Keep in mind that passengers and crew are asked to ensure their own hygiene and safety at all times. Washing hands thoroughly with soap and using a hand sanitiser is advised.

Report from Eldey: We started the tour with a challenging weather but with calm seas. Before we got closer to the spot we were heading to, a humpback whale popped up really close to the boat surprising the people that were looking in that direction with its blow. After spending some time with it we decided to continue our ride. Suddenly we saw a blow in the distance which looked like a humpback´s. We approached to it and we realized there was about three humpbacks feeding around the area. One of them came really close to the boat so the passengers could see how big these animals really are and also some lucky passengers got to sea one of them breaching! We spent some time with the feeding whales and decided to head back so we don´t disturb them that much. The ocean was a bit rough on our way back but it definitely worth it.
