Report from Hafsúlan: Luckily, the winds had calmed as we headed out on a sunlit Faxaflói. After having sailed for around 40 minutes, we spotted the first pod of white-beaked dolphins. They were swimming along the Reyjkanes peninsula and seemed to be after something, presuma
Report from Hafsúlan: As we sailed out into a peaceful evening in the bay, the sun was still shining through the clouds here and there. It did not take us too long to find our first Minke Whale, but unfortunately it was moving very quickly and disappeared before we got a clo
Report from Hafsúlan: The winds had calmed a bit when we headed out this afternoon but so had the wildlife. Apart from 2-3 very elusive harbour porpoises there were no whales to be seen! We managed to get a good look at some nice sea birds but that was it. What a disappointm
Report from Hafsúlan: On a sunny day with few clouds w
Report from Hafsúlan: It was beautiful this evening with dark ominous clouds and scattered showers, the sun breaking through the clouds at various points of the tour also. We once again sailed far offshore, a little further than the previous tours. We past a flock of arctic
Report from Hafsúlan: We headed into the wind and a little bit of rain when we went to the area where we saw the animals in the trips before. The amazing gannets we saw plunge feeding continued with their spectacle together with White-beaked Dolphins (5-9) jumping out of the
Report from Hafsúlan: Today was our first 5 o´clock scheduled tour of the season and the wind and waves calmed down. We headed out towards Keflavik looking back at snowy mountaintops, Reykjavik in the sunshine and two rainbows over the beautiful landscape. Some fulmars, gann
Report from Hafsúlan: The morning was very successful but nature showed its unpredictability in the afternoon by giving us another successful yet very different tour. While the highlight of the morning was the whales we saw in the afternoon we instead got a fantastic look at
Report from Hafsúlan: This afternoon a a slight cloud cover and a bit of rain accompanied us on our way out into Flaxafloí Bay. On our travels out, we occasionally spotted Harbour Porpoises, but soon enough we were able to spot a group of feeding seabirds. Northern Gannets w
Report from Hafsúlan: The weather seemed to have cleared up this afternoon, revealing here and there patches of blue sky and only a mild wind was blowing. Encouraged from this morning's sightings of a lunge feeding Minke Whale, we headed from bird flock to bird flock in sear
Report from Hafsúlan: As usual after a morning tour we headed out to the same area where we were successful, this area would prove to have nothing for us to see. This meant we had to keep sailing out further into the bay, we actually sailed much further than we have had to i
Report from Hafsúlan: If the morning was considered a huge success then this afternoon should be considered something special. And it was all down to one huge event right at the end of the tour, but more about that later. We sailed first for the same area we were successful
Report from Hafsúlan: The morning gave us a very entertaining show and with more excellent weather our spirits were very high this fine afternoon. More perfectly calm ocean and warm wind, even a tour without sightings would have been enjoyable. But we had some great sighting
Report from the Hafsúlan: This afternoon the vessel sailed out into the Bay of Flaxafloí with light rain and overcast skies. The search for marine mammals has proven to be more difficult this afternoon as birds were rarely encountered and thus couldn't be used as indicators
Report from Hafsúlan: There was almost no cloud on the sky and only a soft breeze was blowing when we headed out to Flaxafloí Bay this afternoon. Similar to the morning tour we were fortunate enough to spot a couple of Harbour Porpoises early on. Two different Minke Whales e
Report from Hafsúlan: Our morning gave us some success but we´re always on the hunt for that little extra here at Elding! Our special factor for this afternoon was that for a very long time during the tour we were constantly surrounded by diving Northern Gannets, they were d
Report from Hafsúlan: We had a successful morning and the weather was still excellent, the mood was perfect as we sailed from Reykjavík this afternoon. This afternoon it took us a little longer to find our first species but it was worth it, after around 45 minutes we found o
Report from Hafsúlan: What an afternoon! The conditions for whale watching were perfect! The sun was shining and the sea was very calm. The visability was very good as well. We started by seeing few Harbour Porpoises on our way out. When we got further out we spotted few Min
Report from Hafsúlan: For the afternoon tour the wind had died down, but was unfortunately replaced by light rain after we had left the harbour. But after only about 30 minutes of sailing we saw our first pod of Harbour Porpoises. As we sailed further we kept finding new pod
