Yet another quality day out in the fjord. Throughout the whole tour we were accompanied by sun and blue skies. Some wind in the morning but during the tour it died down.

We started the tour very much like in the previous few days, by spotting a Minke Whale south of Svalbardseyri. Quite a few small fishing boats in that area also. It must have been a good time of the day for the Minke.
After a few encounters we sailed north and saw one blow, then another one and waited. Turned out that we were surrounded by 5 Humpback Whales all coming up at different times, so we stayed very busy watching. All of them stayed in between the Buoy and Hjalteyri. Disy was there and also the injured whale from yesterday. And also a few familiar flukes.
