Whale Watching Blog

The humpback whale has been seen on both our tours today, and during the afternoon tour we even saw him breaching!

Today we spotted the first humpback whale on our whale watching tours this year. And also some minke whales were seen in almost perfect whale watching conditions.

The weather has been very nice the last days here in Húsavík with a lot of sun, especially yesterday. Minke whales and harbour porpoises were seen during our last trips as well as a growing number of seabirds.

After a slow start with 3 tours where the playful Harbour porpoises played the main role, things started to get serious today.   Knörrinn, with 13 passengers (lucky 13) headed out to the bay into a glittering Skjálfandi bay with the magnificent mountains of Kinn graciously rising at the horizon.

It‘s very rare, even on high season to see a whale having a good time inside a port.
