Whale Watching Blog

This morning on the 9:30 NS-2 trip we got a very, very pleasant surprise at the end of the tour. A Humpback whale breached all out of the water about 10 meters away from the boat!!
It was incredible. And we totally deserved to get a nice ending like this, since we had been out there looking for whales for more than 3 hours when we got the news that a Humpback whale had been seen close to Húsavík. We headed straight over there and we followed the very calm whale for a whale and then, all of a sudden it breached!
Earlier on the tour we had seen some White-beaked dolphins, and in the group was the smallest baby dolphin I have ever seen, must have been a newborn. So cute!
