Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: The bay transformed into winter wonderland, with beautiful snow cover on the mountains! Of course with snow comes the cold, so our fullbody suits were surely of use today! On our way out exploring Faxafloi, the sea was pretty clam, makin
Tour at 13:00
Report from Elding: The conditions worsened and the sea became quite rough which meant our journey was rather unpleasant. Unfortunately, no whales or dolphins were seen and complimentary tickets issued.

Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: We departed from Keflavik on our afternoon tour in order to seek shelter from the wind. There was a strong wind blowing from South West, so the land of Reykjanes did a very good job protecting us from too much swell. The weather did not

Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: Just in one hour the wind dropped considerably. It always amazes how quickily the weather can change in Iceland. The sea still had a bit of a roll to it when out offshore but the wind dropp

Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: We got top notch conditions this afternoon! There was almost no wind, the sea was calm, and the visibility seemed infinite! We had a peaceful sailing for about one hour, then we spotted first signs of cetacean wildlife with an elus
Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: The sea conditions had improved over the day and it felt a bit warmer out on the bay. We sailed towards the area where we saw the minke whale on the morning tour. On the way we spotted some splashes far away. Soon after we turned the boa

Report from Eldey: The weather was pretty much the same as in the morning and unfortunately no sightings of cetaceans (whales, dolphins, porpoises) on this tour either even thou
Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: Sea was a tough cookie this afternoon, due to the increased wind. More swell made it a bit tougher sailing and trickier spotting, but everybody held on and stayed patient, until we spotted a blow on the left inside of our boat. It took u
Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: the conditions only improved as the day progressed. The sea was still, the sky blue and perfect wildlife spotting conditions. The first cetacean of the trip were a group of 6-8 harbour porpoises tha

Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: The weather hadn't changed from this morning. We did have a few sprinkles of rain every now and again but nothing that could actually be called rain - at least not in Iceland. We needed longer to find the animals on this tour. After near

Report from Eldey: The sea was calm, the sky clear, and the wind almost non-existent, it was a pleasure to sail out from the harbour this morning. A few harbour porpoises (three individuals) were seen at the beginning of the tour, but

Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: Wind died down compared to this morning, but to our surprise the swell increased. But fortunately the wind direction was in our favor, most of the time we were in the same direction than the waves. The shakings, although quite ample, wer
Tour at 13:00
Report from Eldey: While winds were still strong, it was nothing compared to the days before. Swell was coming in a direction so that we could avoid it, making this ride smoother than expected. The visibility was good as well, we could even see Snæfellsjök
