Report from Hafsúlan. Sailed out in beautiful weather once again. Saw three species on this tour. One Minke Whale, two pods of White-beaked Dolphins and two pods of Harbour Porpoises. We saw the Minke very well as it surfaced close to the suns glare, the blow so visible in the low lying sun. The splashes in the distance from jumping dolphins and porpoising porpoises. Incredible day.

Report from Hafsúlan: We sailed out into Faxaflói in beautiful weather. Calm seas and blue skies. We sailed for maybe 40 minutes before we saw a lot of seabirds and Harbour Porpoises. It wasn´t until near the end of the tour were we saw the larger cetaceans, the Minke Whales. We spent most of our time with one individual that surfaced many times and occasionally less than 30 meters from our boat which was really nice. The blow (exhaled breath of the whales) were so clear this morning with the low lying sun. A stunning morning to be out in the bay.
