Report from Hafsúlan: the wind was coming strongly from northeast making relatively high waves that rocked the boat while we headed out on the bay. We heard news from another boat that they had seen some white-beaked dolphins so we started to sail towards them. When we arrived the other boat had already lost them so we just started to sail around and search around the area. It didn’t take us so long to find them, two or four together. They were cheerful, swimming around us in only few meters distance and often very close to the water surface so we could see their whole body in the water. The most exciting times were when these beautiful animals jumped up in the air in front of the boat.
