North Sailing News

Húsavík festival, Mærudagar and Sweedish days, came to an end yesterday after a whole week of cultural activities and events.

Yesterday morning the passengers of North-sailing found an extremely cheery Humpback whale exercising and warming up for the day. As if jumping and drying himself completely in the morning breeze wasn´t enough he also showed off his fluke and flippers a lot for the lucky audience.

The merriment out on Skjálfandi Bay surely continues these days and the weather is definitely playing its part as well. Humback whales and cheerful White Beaked Dolphins have charmed North Sailing´s guests the last days.

It is safe to say that variety was descriptive of North-Sailing´s tours last Sunday morning when 5 boats sailed out on behalf of the company.

The blue whales are back after a few days out of the bay. A majestic blue whale was spotted by the crew of Schooner Haukur at the 17:00 departure.

The past few weeks have been incredible in regards to whale sightings. Humpback whales have been seen in almost every tour this summer, more often than ever- or at least since the beginning of whale watching in Skjálfandi bay.

In our tours past few days there have still been some sightings of both Blue whales and Humpback whales. However, dolphins have been in the spotlight, putting on a spectacular show for passengers.
