STORM OVER – WHALE WATCHING CONTINUES
After having to cancel our tours for two days due to bad weather, we were finally able to sail out to Skjalfandi Bay today with many whale watchers in the search of whales.
Friendly minke whales, many harbour porpoises and finally a breaching humpback greeted our passengers today, who had many been waiting patiently after good weather.
The Icelandic weather is very unpredictable and sometimes the weather gets too bad for whale watching and therefore we sometimes have to cancel our tours. Of course there is always enough of work to do in the boats although trips are cancelled – e.g. cleaning and shining the boats thoroughly.
After using the time and cleaning the boats yesterday, most of our staff and families, among other good guests, got together for a wonderful staff celebration. The group got together at Saltvik horse rental and then rode to Heiðarbær. A lovely meal was waiting for us and then a nice swim! The celebration was a big success and we thank Saltvik and Heiðarbær and of course all our staff, families and friends for a nice evening.

Having a good time and a great dinner at Heiðarbær!
