Tour at 13:00
Report from Hafsúlan: Once again we sailed from Grindavík and once again the tour did not disappoint. The sailing was mostly good, though some swell in the water made for some thrills. The bird life was excellent, there were plenty of Northern Gannets, Kittiwakes, Black-Backed Gulls, Fulmars, Glaucous Gulls and a few Common Guillemotes around the boat. But the highlight was the Humpback Whale that we spotted, it looked like a fairly young whale and got quite close to the boat. We stayed with the whale for a while but after it looked as if the whale didn´t want us around anymore we decided to move on, respecting the whales wishes.
