We had fantastic weather conditions today. No wind, a bit of snow and mostly a mirrorlike fjord!
During our tours today, we encountered several pods of Harbor Porpoises south of Hjalteyri, the diverse birdlife of our fjord along the way, such as a Northern Gannet, and one Humpback Whale north of Akureyri!
On our morning tour, we witnessed the Humpback Whale just outside of Akureyri, by the warm waterfall. There, the whale kept poking its mouth and head out of the water surface, as if it was playing with the ice on the surface. Such an impressive and interesting encounter! We could see the Humpback resurface several times after short deep dives and on this super calm day, we even heard its breath many times!
