MOST MEMORABLE TOUR:

I was guiding the tour when we got to see two Humpback Whales lunge feeding together all around Pollurinn and at some point they were feeding directly in front of our boat Konsull. They came to the surface several times and we could see the fish jumping out of the water before the whales came to the surface.
