Status 9:00 and 13:00 Tours: RUNNING
Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: Weather remained unchanged from the mornings tour, meaning that we had an extremely flat sea with great spotting conditions. We sailed to the area we encountered the dolphins this morning, hoping that we would come across this large pod again. We scanned the area thoroughly, zigzagging our journey back towards the city but unfortunately could not locate the cetaceans again. Complimentary tickets were awarded.

Report from Eldey: It was worthy to woke up early today. As yesterday weather was calm with perfectly mirror-like sea and no wind. Our first animal - small harbour porpoise was waiting for us just next to the first island, few minutes of sailing from harbour. This individual was elusive so we continued our way taking this sighting as an good omen. It was true as not much later we found pod o 4 harbour porpoises in much more friendly moods. We stayed with them for few minutes till we headed in direction of splashes. Huge pod of white-beaked dolphins, around 30 or more, were feeding or socializing in the area. They were jumping and taking dives under our boat. Dolphins were coming by themselves, obviously interested in us. It was fun time when we were looking at dolphins while dolphins were human-watching.
