Tour at 13:00

On this tour we spotted a Minke whale very soon. And also a calf. I didnt approach us, but we were able to see it from a distance of 100metres. We also met a group of White beaked dolphins and later the Minke whale appeared all around. So we had a sighting of dolphins and Minke whales at the same time. Also feeding Gannets, the large birds were playing a diving spectacular feeding technique for us. This was a sucessfull tour!

 

Tour at 9:00

This morning the wind was calm, it was warm and sunny, very good for whalewatching. but at the beginning of the tour no whales appeared. After a while we finally spotted a Minke whale that dived very long. We saw maybe other 3, but all were diving for a while. On the way back we met a group of White beaked dolphins and this was a nice sighting. There were maybe 7 dolphing playing around!¨
