Trip at 13:00

We went out in preety windy weather which improved a lot during the tour. While heading out we spotted a minke and had a pod of harbour porpoises really close to the boat. We made a big loop by sailing further out into the bay...but only when we came back closer to coast we had some more successful minke whale and porpoise sightings.

Trip at 09:00

We encountered several groups of the Harbour Porpoises, a few of them very close to the boat. We also spotted 3 individuals of the Minke Whale, 2 were passing only in a distance but one was surfacing a few times very close to the boat - so close that we were even afraid it would bump its head the next time!
