CLASSIC WHALE TOUR | 2030
Report from Eldey: We sailed out under the cloudy sky into the bay. There were slightly rougher seas on our way out which led to some green faces but nothing we couldn't handle. We then turned to face into Hvalfjörður which meant the wind was behind us and the seas calmed which was very nice. We also had a quick stop off at Lundey to see some of the amazing Atlantic puffins living there at the moment, during their breeding season. Unfortunately we did not see any cetaceans on this trip. We gave out complimentary tickets so our passengers can come back in the future and hopefully have better luck to see some cetaceans.
