Sun and white beaked dolphins in Skjálfandi Bay
This morning as we headed out to Skjálfandiflói we did not know what to expect. At the 10 o´clock trip we decided to head to the western part of the bay and try out our luck there. We got a great look at the mountains and all the creeks. But unfortunately we did not manage to find any whales. As we started for the 13:30 trip we went further north in the bay, but still heading west. After about an hour of sailing in the sun we found some white beaked dolphins. They were probably 20 of them around the boat and were not at all afraid of the boat. After about an half hour we decided to head further west, again closer to the mountains where we hoped to find some other species but had no success. On the way back we again met the white beaked dolphins an followed them for a while
