CLASSIC WHALE WATCHING | 09:00
Report from Eldey - this morning we sailed out with gorgeous sun and low wind. We headed straight to the spot where we been lucky for the last few days but on the way we spotted a blow of a humpback whale. The animal was relaxed on the surface and although it was taking long dives we were able to see it few times and even one fluke. It was a nice sighting but because of long dive we were only able to see it a few times from afar so we decided to offer everyone complementary ticket to try their luck again for free.
CLASSIC WHALE WATCHING | 13:00
Report from Eldey: This afternoons weather was quite dynamic, with strong winds, bright sunshine and large waves. We sailed out from the harbour with high hopes after the humpback this morning. After some time we spotted a shy minke whale on our left. We were able to see it once before it vanished, seemingly uninterested in lingering near our boat. We did see many seabirds feeding all over the bay but unfortunately we didn´t see any other cetaceans. So we handed out complimentary tickets to everyone on board. Hopefully they can come back and have better luck next time :)
