It took a little while longer to see the first Minke Whale of this tour but they were spotted none the less. Again, there were quite a few blows seen but once we got closer to where the blow was spotted the Minkes´ seemed to disappear and this happened on a couple of occasions. However, as the time was running out for this tour one Minke Whale decided to give us a break and surfaced 3 or 4 times before going for a deep dive less than 100 meters from the vessel. Thus, a perfect ending to the tour.
Tour at 9:00
Today was somewhat like yesterday. We sailed onboard Hafsúlan out from Reykjavik harbour. We didn´t have to travel very far before we spotted our first Minke Whale of the day. Again there were quite a few in Faxafloi Bay but they were being a tad more stealthy than usual, only surfacing once or twice before going for a deep dive and not resurfacing for a long time. However, the abundance of Minkes´ in Faxafloi meant that we were able to encounter quite a few individuals. We also got to view a couple of the colourful puffins which ended the tour perfectly.
