A great tour with some beautiful weather! We stopped at Lundey (puffin island) and saw quite a few puffins and some other sea birds around the island. We sailed out on to Faxaflói and were able to observe about 6-8 Minke whales feeding around us, a couple of them very close to
Lovely tour, sea flat and calm, excellent light conditions. We had the Puffins first, Akurey, and then we sailed further out. We had at least 5 Minke whales, and one of them was so close, less than 30 meters, it was really amazing to have such a big whale so close.

Elding: Even earlier than this morning we spotted close ashore a particularly nice minke whale. It travelled several kilometres out into Faxaflói bay while we watched it. We sailed slowly with it and it didn't pay us very much
The weather was still great this evening, calm sea and evening sun. At first the whales we spotted weren't very approachable. They deep dived a lot and stayed under the surface for a long time. When we sailed further out to a more shallow area we found minke whales that were
Once we got to the whale area we spotted some minke whales, but they were difficult to follow as they were deep-diving for a long time. We continued to sail out and spotted a few more on the way but still not very well. Later on the tour we spotted a playful group of white-b
Last tour, good sea conditions out in faxafloi bay. Minke whales still the more numerous whales spotted. We sailed to many flocks of birds and underneath the birds we saw a Minke whale going in feeding strike, fast speeding up and englpu-ing a large quantity of water with fish.
It was very good light conditions, clear sky and almost no wind on the way. Sometimes just a bit bumby going against the wind. Minke whales were out there and especially we had a juvanile which surfaced very close to the boat at the end of the tour. very nice!

The weather was still very good and the sun was shining, too. We spotted one nice minke whale and stayed with it for some while. We suddenly spotted a splash in the distance and went there. On the way there we spotted some more min
The weather conditions were similar as in the morning. We headed to the same area as in the tour at 13:00 and were greatly rewarded! We spotted two humpback whales! The first one was a bit smaller, maybe a juvenile, and the second one was very active. It breached two times
We sailed from Reykjavík this afternoon in spite of the weather conditions. Western winds create swell in the bay, which means that there are some deep heavy waves coming towards us as we are sailing out. Our passengers braved the conditions and it paid off! We found a big g
A bit windy and rainy during t our late afternoon tour. We sailed out to the Puffins, quite many all day on the Island and then out to spot whales. We cheched a lot of different places in search for whales and what we spotted was mainly large flock of feeding gannets, artic sku
Quite windy still out there on the bay but we set off again. We found hundreds of birds out on the bay, many Kittiwakes, some Arctic Terns, Puffins, Fulmars and Gulls. We spotted one Minke whale several times before we set off towards Reykjavík again. Quite an adventurous day o
The weather was similar as it was at noon. In the beginning of the trip the crew noticed big splashes in the distance. We were very excited and hoped to be able to approach what we believed to be a breaching whale. We saw the splashes several times, but unfortunately the ani

This time the passengers had to show a bit more patience because the whales moved further out into Faxaflói bay. But in the end we found two minke whales, one of which was a calf. We were able to spend some time with them and
Still quite windy and overcast but we managed to sailed out in Faxafloi bay, where we spotted still a lot of feeding flocks of Artic terns, which went back after few days of absebce and
The wind had picked up quite a lot and it was a bit difficult to find the whales but we were briefly able to spot two Minke whales as well as a third which was breaching in the distance (still!!!). There were a lot of puffins in the island this evening :)
The weather was really wonderful on this tour. After a day of rain it cleared up around five o'clock and we sailed out on the bay in sunshine and dry weather. The sea was also really calm so it was a fantastic evening :-) We spotted a group of harbour porpoises really close
No more rain, sea flat and calm and Minke whales around, a few Puffins puddling around and still the Humpback whale spotted. This time the whale was calm surfacing, and deep diving very close showing the large fluke out of the water.

We sailing out in Faxafloi bay, wind went down and the sea was very flat. We had another unique tour fowlowing a Humpback whale, the fourth animals during the same day. It was sometimes so close that we coudn't believe it. Once it even stopped at 5 o' clock resting under the su
Trip at 17:00
An amazing tour this late afternoon. We had very active fedding Minke whales. First we stopped close to an area with two large flocks of feeding birds and we could see a rolling minke whale showing the fluke out of the water then another one jumped in a lunge feeding strike. T
