Whale Watching Blog

When we went out this morning at 10:00, we had less wind and the sea was much calmer than yesterday. When leaving the harbour, we started heading north-west searching for the large whales that had been in the area the last couple of days. After about half an hour we spotted a blow from a humpback whale and we tried to follow him for a while, but he didn't really show much of himself. So we decided to sail further west, closer to the mountains, where we came across another humpback whale. After watching this whale for a short while, we set the course south, sailing along the beautiful mountains and passing the old farmhouse in Naustavík. In the southern part of the bay we found two more humpback whales and these two were quite nice to watch, even coming up together on one occasion. So all in all a very nice tour with four humpback whales in sunny weather.
