All good things must come to an end and it goes as well for the fantastic ones. After 9 months of whale-watching, this amazing season came to end today on the most beautiful note. On a very calm sea and under a slight rain, the guests and the crew were part of a emotionful human…
As it has been for quite few days now, the entire sunlight cycle was about as long as our trip at sea. The rising and fading daylight showed us the way to a minke whale and 3 humpback whale. Our smiley guests were some of the last people to enjoy this magnificient year 2016. Tomorrow…
After few terribly cold days, during which cancelled some of the tours, we experienced today a surprising “weather oasis”, the temperatures going up from many degrees.

Shivers were indeed the main theme of our tour today. Basic shivers, for sure as we once again had to face a strong south wind that made the whole tour quite cold. But shivers of excitement as well, for the fantastic whale show we were offered! 5 humpback whales in groups of two and three.…

Today’s tour can be summed up by comparing it with the current sunlight in Iceland. The tour started like the visit of a large desert, with Skjalfandi Bay playing here the role of a large sandy and empty lanscape. Not a sign of life appeared for more than an hour. And just like the long…
When we left the harbour onboard “Náttfari” this morning, we had once again fantastic weather conditions: flat sea and a beautiful autumn light. We set the course towards the western part of the bay where we had been lucky yesterday. It proved to be a good idea as it did not take us long until…
