A BREACHING HUMPBACK


After one day of bad weather and cancelled tours we were finally able to head out to Skjalfandi Bay this morning with enthusiastic whale watchers. The bay has been full of life today – three humpbacks and minke whales!

On both our morning tours a humpback whale breached only a few metres from the boat – imagine seeing a 25-40 ton magnificent animal breaching just next to you!!

The humpback is one of the most “acrobatic” of the whales. Quite often on our tours we experience humpbacks displaying a special behaviour, such as breaching, tail lobbing or even flipper slapping …
