Tour 13:00

The sky cleared up and the sun came out. Beautiful sunny day, still some wind and the whales even more spectacular than this morning. We had a group of 3 to 4 White-beaked dolphins in front of us, even travelling underwater to the boat. Then we had a fantastic sighting with a Humpback whale, we believe it was a young one which was all time floating at the surfacing, slowly moving underwater and since the water was so clear we could see the all body moving and the whale came sometime even less than 5 meters from us.

A nice day out at sea. Overcast, a little windy but the whales were there. In fact, we had at least two Minke whales, which we could follow easily and then we even had a Humpback whale which was surfacing close and we ould follow its blow from very far. Birds were amazing as well, all time gathering in large flocks.
