An incredible number of whales!

Today we had (once more) absolutely amazing whale watching tours here in Skjálfandi Bay!

On all trips today we spotted numerous humpback whales (there must have been about 10-15 humpback whales in the bay today), several groups of white-beaked dolphins and on our afternoon tours also several minke whales.

It was amazing to see them all feeding in the same area, close to the mountains on the western side of the bay: There were humpbacks whales, minke whales and white-beaked dolphins surfacing everywhere, feeding among lots of seabirds, and it was really hard to decide where to look.

As a bonus, we also had really beautiful weather today and on our 17:00 tour we also spotted two young harbour seals on our way back to Húsavík.

All in all, just a fantastic day with an amazing feeding frenzy in beautiful weather conditions!
