    Tour at 13:00

    What a day. After two days of seeing nothing today surprised us all. Just goes to show you how unpredictable wildlife is. We headed out from Hafnarfjörður today and saw about 15-20 Orca (Killer Whales) and 200-300 White-beaked Dolphins. I think we missed most the action as t

    Once again a very disappointing day in terms of whales, dolphins and porpoises. The Killer whales (orca) on Thursday must have eaten up all the herring so that there are none left for the following days. The lights was beautiful however and the passengers were able to get so

    It is absolutely amazing how quickly nature changes. From having one of the best encounters yesterday to nothing today. It was nice though to be out at sea with the snow. So enjoy making snowmen and throwing snowballs everyone and hopefully tomorrow we will have more luck with

    Today we sailed out from Hafnarfjörður and ended there too. Unfortunately no cetacean but the evening light at 1530 was stunning as the suns rays peak from behind the clouds, and sunset skies with the snow capped mountains. The weather was extremely interchangeable too as on

    We sailed out in once again a beautiful day, flat seas and great visibility. Our first cetacean of the day was a small pod of White-beaked Dolphins which had a calf with them and enjoyed watching us as we watched them as they swam under and around the boat. Then we had not o

    Wow what a tour! We sailed out in perfect whale watching weather, the visibility was just perfect. Soon we spotted 2 harbour porpoises, but they only surfaced twice before disappearing. Very soon after that we spotted a black back in the distance and it was a minke whale! An

    Today would be a perfect Whale Watching day if there were any whales. Flat calm seas and a beautiful sunset. We searched our favourite areas but I guess it was not in the cards today. Beautiful day out at sea nonetheless.

    the sea conditions were fantastic, nice and flat. Unfortunately the rain spoilt the tour a little bit but it was still enjoyable. We had a very successful tour as we saw two Minke Whales which must of been feeding on the abundance of fish we saw on the Fish Finder, maybe Her

    We sailed out to Faxaflói bay in a calm and nice weather. It took as some time until we spotted a black back in the surface and it was a minke whale! He surfaced many times for us around the boat and few times so near that we clearly heard the heavy breath. After a while we

    Once again we sailed out into Faxaflói Bay in beautiful weather. Need to enjoy it whilst we can as strong winds look like they're coming for tomorrow. We were doubly lucky to not only see one Minke Whale but two on this tour. After a long time of seeing only Dolphins, amazin

    A day like no other. Flat calm sea and the light was incredible with beautifully lit mountains and skies. Unfortunately no large whales but we did see a lot of White-beaked Dolphins and they were enjoying the waves from the boat and bow riding. Great day

    We sailed out on a beautiful day today. We went along the coast towards Keflavik in search of a Humpback Whale which was satellite tagged and tracked to Faxaflói Bay however the whale was unfortunate too far around the other side of the Reykjanes Peninsula for us to follow.

    We left the harbour today in really nice weather. Not much wind and blue skies but it soon changed and rain and grey clouds started to close in. We found a great pod of White-beaked Dolphins on this tour which were playing in the waves and coming within meters of our boat an

    Faxaflói Bay has not been very productive lately but it's always worth checking it out as you never know when it could change. Unfortunately not today. Complimentary tickets to all.

    We didn't find the whales this afternoon when we finally sailed out after three stormy days. It was quite rough out there and we searched in a large area but no sign of them. Only one time, one white-beaked dolphin surfaced and we didn't find it again. We saw only a few bird
