Report from Hafsúlan. It wasn´t long, 20 minutes maybe, when we found our first cetacean. A Minke Whale! Few passengers saw it and well done to those who did as it was fast surfacing and surfaced only a couple of times before diving down and disappearing into the depth of Fa
Report from Hafsúlan: We made the decision to sail from Hafnafjörður this afternoon in order to shelter from some high winds. The sea was actually quite calm too so our sailing was quite comfortable for a lot of the trip. We started out sailing along the Reykjanes peninsula
Report from Hafsúlan: A blue sky day greeted us on an afternoon where we experienced every Mother Nature represented! At the beginning the swell was quite high so we sailed for the shelter of Hvalfjörður, we got a fantastic view of the mountains Akrafjall and Esja and the se
Report from Hafsúlan: We sailed out into a beautifully sunny Bay in the afternoon and spotted our first Minke Whale not even 30 minutes after leaving the harbour. It surfaced fairly close to the boat and gave us a good look at its back and dorsal fin. Our luck continued with
Report from Hafsúlan: At the beginning of the afternoon tour we had another bout of rain, but the sky cleared up a lot during the tour and we got to enjoy some whale watching with sunshine and multiple rainbows. At both ends of our first rainbow we saw blows from 2 Humpback
Report from Hafsúlan: The afternoon trip started out with some rain, just as the morning trip had ended. Later during the trip, however, the sky cleared and we got beautiful looks at the surrounding scenery and sunshine reflecting off the water surface. While following the b
Report from Hafsúlan: We had a successful morning tour so when we headed out from Reykjavík we were very confident. While in the morning it took us a while to find something, this afternoon it only took us around 30 minutes to find our first species! We found a Minke Whale!
Report from Hafsúlan: The weather stayed pretty much the same this afternoon no not much to report there. The first cetacean spotted was a Minke Whale that surfaced a couple of times but quite difficult to point out. We were about to head further out when another whale watch
Report from Hafsúlan: After a good morning we headed back out into what turned out to be a much livelier Faxaflói in the afternoon. It started much like the previous tour with a few brief White-Beaked Dolphin and Harbour Porpoise sightings but after sailing further out turne
Report from Hafsúlan: The bay was still swirming with life on our second tour. The large pod of dolphins had shifted but we still saw two smaller pods of White Beaked Dolphins not far from Reykjavík. We also saw at least three different Minke whales. On our way back to the h
Tour at 13:00
Report from Hafsúlan: Again the weather was just beautiful as we headed out, totally smooth ocean and the sun came out in between the clouds. We headed towards the area where we were this morning but there wasn't as much life there like earlier so we decided to head more t
Report from Hafsúlan: It was still calm as we headed out this afternoon. After a short sailing we found minke whales. There were 4 or 5 of them swimming calmly along in quite a large area. After we had seen some splashes in the distance we decided to leave the minkes behind.
Report from Hafsúlan and Elding: Both the weather and the sea were in fantastic form today as we sailed from Reykjavík. A clear sky and shining sun lit our way, at the beginning we even got a brief look at Harbour Porpoises that made a quick appearance. As we sailed further
Report from Hafsúlan: This afternoon, due to the swell, we decided to head to where we were yesterday hoping the sea conditions would be better there. On the way there we spotted a Minke Whale but always quite far away and surfacing again always randomly as it constantly cha
Report from Hafsúlan and Elding: 4 Species this afternoon. Amazing! The swell was still high out in the bay so we started where we left of on the last tour, Hafnafjörður. We first sailed out in a snow storm but the sun soon made it through the clouds and sunny the rest of th
Report from Hafsúlan: Today we sailed from Hafnafjörður in order to stay sheltered against the wind, though the sea itself wasn´t very swelly and the ride was mostly very comfortable. It didn´t take long before we had our first sighting of the day, we managed to spot a pod o
Report from Hafsúlan and Elding: As we sailed this afternoon we were greeted by blue sky and sunshine! This kept changing throughout the tour as we sailed through sun, then hail, then sun. On the way out we came across a huge flock of seabirds including Fulmar, Kittiwakes an
Report from Hafsúlan: We sailed from Hafnafjörður this time as we finished there on the morning tour, it didn´t take long for us to spot the same Harbour Porpoises that we saw at the end of the last tour. They were still feeding and watching the birds swoop down to take thei
