Whale hello there! We started the day sailing out from cloudy Akureyri harbour. But not cold at all, and with a very flat sea on Eyjafjörður. But pretty sun the clouds started to clear out and we ended up in need of sunscreen due to the brightest of suns! And every tour was so niche just enjoying all the birds with the chicks and the clear skies. But not only that because East Hrísey island we found 2 Humpback whales!!! Simply amazing swimming around and fluking almost every time. But it wasn’t all humpbacks and seabirds, because just wen we where just entering the Akureyri harbour area…. BOM a small pod of Harbour porpoises started porpoising around!
