Report from Elding: The first midnight tour of the summer was conducted tonight! It was cloudy this evening so unfortunately we didn't get a look at the midnight sun, but still the weather was calm and nice although it rained a little bit during the tour. We spotted 3-4 Mink
Report from Hafsúlan: by far the best tour on this boat today. It did take us around two hours to find a Minke Whale but once we finally did, while we were tracing a blow in a distance, it was an awesome one and well worth the time it took to find it. Then on the way back to
Report from Hafsúlan: The weather this afternoon was much the same as we headed out onto the bay for our last trip of the day. We decided this time around to head further south and begin our search. The wind had picked up slightly by the time we got further out onto the bay
Report from Hafsúlan: It had calmed down even more this morning when we left the Reykjavík habour. Still, the sky was clear and the temperatures were comfortable. We had sailed for about 40 minutes when the first minke whale was spotted and after that there were about 5 mink
Report from Hafsúlan: we went out and along the way listened to some stories on the radio of how many whales of how many species were being seen out there, thinking we'd have to take them with a pinch of salt as it sounded as if the captains were just joking between themselv
Report from Hafsúlan: The sea conditions had gotten even better for the evening tour - absolutely perfect sighting conditions under light grey clouds! And after a little over 30 minutes of sailing we were back in minke paradise... First we watched two Minke Whales surface ri
Report from Hafsúlan: The conditions were still the same as we left the harbour for our evening tour. Although the conditions were still good for sightings we could not discover a lot of life in the beginning. But then we found two Minke Whales at the same time! They were sw
Report from Hafsúlan: This evening the fantastic weather of the day was still present and this evening we found ourselves three species! Earlier in the day we found two species which we see almost every day but this evening we had a third species that we see once every few d
Report from Hafsúlan: It had become a bit windier as we headed out at 5pm. The weather was still top notch and we headed to the area where we had left the minke whales in the 13:00 o'clock tour. Sadly, they were not there any more and the birds seemed to have left too. But a
Report from Hafsúlan: The weather was so good in this tour and as we got to the area where we were earlier it looked like the animals had gone to another place. But we still stopped the boat and took a better look. After a few minutes one of the passengers spotted the first
Report from Hafsúlan: The weather cleared up and the strong afternoon sun warmed our backs on the way out into the bay of Flaxafloí. Accompanied by a couple (5-10) of elusive Harbour Porpoises on the way out, we soon enough got word off a Minke Whale around one of the other
Report from Hafsúlan: We headed out into the bay this evening in very good conditions, calm winds and some small swells. Conditions were excellent for whale watching and we had high hopes for the tour. About 40 minutes into the trip we spotted our first cetacean of the trip,
Report from Hafsúlan: We sailed out today in extremely good weather. There was little wind and the seas were very calm, with almost no waves. Perfect conditions for whale watching. To start of our tour we went to the same spot we went to on our 13:00 tour and were hoping spo
Report from Hafsúlan: We went out under a rather overcast skye but it took quite some effort to locate what this tour gave us. First one Minke Whale appeared just once, we waited for it for a while but it did not resurface despite not arching itself as they usually do before
Report from Hafsúlan: At the beginning of the tour we were heading into calmer sea conditions compared with the morning, but the wind was picking up later on. We sailed in grey, dark blue, silver and golden coloured sea during our journey. No bigger flocks of birds were spot
Report from Elding: We went to the same area as on the other tours today but unfortunately the only cetaceans we encountered were a small pod (5-10) of Harbour Porpoises. We first saw them suddenly about 50 meters in front of the boat, from where they continued to the right
Report from Hafsúlan: What a FANTASTIC tour! We headed out in calm winds and calm seas. When we were barely out of the harbour a radio call came in from our Videy ferry captain about a whale he had spotted close to Engey. We immediately turned to investigate and pretty s
Report from Hafsúlan: For this entire trip we were covered in sunlight, we had almost completely blue sky and it was a great evening for a tan. As it was evening the light was perfect for taking pictures of the birds and bay. Because it was so sunny there were times when it
Tour at 17:00
Report from Hafsúlan: The sea was so calm as we headed out in the after noon sunlight. We hadn't sailed for long when we spotted a couple of Harbour porpoises that were spread around the area, at least 10-15 individuals. We sa
