Silky smooth bay

Today the bay was silky smooth or "smooth like a mirror" like we Icelanders say and the weather was ideal for wale watching. It was cloudy but warm and there was almost no wind. Assistant guide Ísak found the first whale in the 10 o'clock tour and it was a minke whale. Then there came up some technical difficulties onboard Garðar, but our hard-working and quick-thinking crew, captain Hrólfur and engeneer Garðar found out what was wrong and fixed it. So we enjoyed the rest of the day with more minke whales, some white beaked dolpins and harbour porpoises.

 

A satisfied guide after a beautiful day.
