✔ PREMIUM TOUR ON SCHEDULE | 10:00
Report from Þruma RIB: Today morning tour was sunny but the sea was agitated, specially in front of Hvalfjörður. Our experimented captain sailed us on this rocky sea to the area where humpback whales were seen yesterday. We first saw one discret harbour porpoise followed by a second one much more curious. The water was clear enough to see this individual approaching the boat without surfacing. A bit later we saw the spout of a humpabck whale. We diligently approached and could see the whale from closer, surfacing and one time fluke diving. We came back admiring the beautiful landscape, stopped at Akurey to observe the atlantic puffin colony on the island and came back to the harbour.
