All whale watching tours are cancelled today from Reykjavík due to unfavourable conditions in the bay!

We experienced mixed weather today, from drizzle and chilly winds to moments of sunshine. In the morning we spent time with a calm humpback whale that came very close to the boat and fluked before diving. The afternoon tour brought playful humpback activity with breaches and flipper slaps, however the rest of the day was cancelled due to weather.

We enjoyed beautiful weather throughout the day, with sunshine, calm seas and great visibility. In the morning we spotted 4 white-beaked dolphins and a relaxed humpback whale that stayed with us for the rest of the tour. The afternoon brought another humpback whale that fluked multiple times and surfaced right in front of the boat! A spectacular day in the bay!

This morning we enjoyed calm seas and spent time with two humpback whales, including one curious individual that fluke-slapped and surfaced close enough for us to smell its breath. In the afternoon, we saw 2 more humpback whales feeding near each other, joined by at least 7 white-beaked dolphins hunting expressively around the boat before a final fluke dive.

This morning we enjoyed sunny skies and a flat ocean, first spotting a calm minke whale before heading toward a humpback whale pec-slapping and showing off its fins. In the afternoon, we found another friendly humpback whale performing fluke dives and gliding near the surface with its white pectoral fins clearly visible in the calm sea.

This morning we sailed into calm seas under clearing skies and enjoyed extended views of a sleepy humpback whale and its beautiful pectoral fins before returning to Reykjavík. In the afternoon, we encountered 2 humpback whales - one actively feeding, the other gliding beneath the surface with shining pectoral fins and even a dramatic peduncle throw.

This morning we encountered three pods of white-beaked dolphins, ending with a playful group before a surprise humpback whale sighting gave us fluke views near the end. In the afternoon, we saw 5 harbour porpoises and two humpback whales, one breaching impressively and the other calmly surfacing with its pectoral fin glowing beneath the calm sea.

This morning we sailed through calm seas with beautiful clouds covering the mountains and enjoyed a playful humpback whale rolling and showing its pectoral fins before continuing past puffins and terns. In the afternoon, we had a brief sighting of a minke whale before spending quality time with a fluking humpback whale surfacing close to the boat.

This morning we enjoyed calm seas and sunshine, spotting 4–6 harbour porpoises, two pods of white-beaked dolphins - one bow-riding - and a calm humpback whale fluking near the boat. In the afternoon, after a quiet start, we saw another shy pod of white-beaked dolphins and the same humpback whale again, fluking beautifully before heading home.

This morning we sailed through calm seas and encountered 3 feeding minke whales surrounded by birds, followed by a curious pod of 5 white-beaked dolphins. In the afternoon, after a long search and one early white-beaked dolphin, we were rewarded with a satisfying sighting of a humpback whale near the end of the tour.

This morning we encountered 10 harbour porpoises in and around Hvalfjörður before spotting a humpback whale in the bay that ended the tour with a lovely fluke dive. In the afternoon, under grey skies, we found another friendly humpback whale lifting its pectoral fin and gliding through the waves before we headed back to Reykjavík.

This morning we sailed into Hvalfjörður and were treated to an incredible humpback whale display - breaching repeatedly, pec-slapping, rolling, lobtailing, and fluking. At one point we could see its whole body out of the water! On our return to Reykjavík, we were surrounded by puffins and fulmars. The rest of today's tours were cancelled due to weather.

This morning we sailed out in sunshine and spotted a pod of 12 white-beaked dolphins breaching near the boat, followed by a humpback whale fluking through the fog. In the afternoon, we saw 7 harbour porpoises and 2 humpback whales in Hvalfjörður, one giving high fluke dives through sun glare before we returned in foggy conditions.

This morning we enjoyed glassy seas and sunshine, with sightings of 3 minke whales and a peaceful pod of white-beaked dolphins gliding near the boat. In the afternoon, we had 2 more minke whales, 2 harbour porpoises, and several white-beaked dolphin pods, including one of 10 individuals jumping close to the boat in calm waters.

This morning we sailed through thick fog that cleared to sunshine, revealing 5-6 harbour porpoises, a fluking humpback whale, and a pod of 4–5 curious white-beaked dolphins, including a calf. In the afternoon we enjoyed sunny skies, encountering 2 humpback whales, even more harbour porpoises, and a brief visit from 4 white-beaked dolphins.

This morning we enjoyed sunny skies and calm seas, spotting 2 relaxed minke whales, 3 harbour porpoises, and a pod of 3 white-beaked dolphins, ending with a feeding minke whale. In the afternoon we encountered a calm humpback whale in Hvalfjörður along with two pods of harbour porpoises gliding through the flat fjord. What a great day at sea!

This morning we enjoyed calm, sunny seas and watched a pod of 8 white-beaked dolphins, including a calf, feeding and jumping near the boat, followed by a fluking humpback whale. In the afternoon, we encountered 2 minke whales - one more cooperative than the other - and ended with a fluke dive from the same humpback whale seen earlier. A dream!

This morning we sailed in calm, sunny weather and encountered over 5 white-beaked dolphins, a friendly humpback whale, and 4 minke whales, with more dolphins and one last minke whale spotted on our way back. In the afternoon, we saw 3 minke whales and three pods of white-beaked dolphins, ending with fluke dives from a humpback whale.
