As the forecast predicted the weather has been constantly getting better. Already yesterday evening the sky cleared up and the sunshine blessed us on the last daily departure. At night some northern lights appeared and today started as sunny as yesterday ended.
Due to bad weather conditions we unfortunately had to cancel all our departures today. Seeing the weather forecast for tomorrow the conditions seem to change and constantly get better throughout the day.
A few hundred thousands of you already left around the 20th of August, but luckily we could enjoy some of you a couple of days longer. Lundey (Puffin Island), your home island is meanwhile empty. We will have to wait for your return until next May.
Yesterday evening we headed out on our RIB Amma Sigga for the „GG2 Big Whale Safari“. After getting the first humpback surfacing right next to the boat in the very beginning we had to wait a little for it to show up again.
Today’s morning started as beautiful as yesterday evening had ended. Sunshine was blessing us and also it was pretty warm again. Weather like this attracts many people to go out at sea for sailing.
Another beautiful day comes to an end. Today’s tours were blessed with sunshine and heat. Most likely it was the warmest day of this year’s summer so far. Even in the evening, when the sun was setting behind the Cheek Mountains, it didn’t really cool down but a warm breeze was there instead.
The first boats this morning had found a humpback whale short after they left. Being on the second oak boat to leave the harbour, we decided to catch up with them to get a look at this whale, too. But short before we reached the area a minke showed up out of the sudden.
„Great day yesterday, thanks!“ writes Harm, tour guide at noSun travel. Attached to his mail were following lovely and amazing photos from the tour he’d been on with his group.
Today another bue whale has shown up in the bay. One of the RIBs found the huge mammal in the early morning. The whale was swimming close to the mountains and therefore, it was not difficult for the oak boats to follow.
Today the last 8pm „GG1 Whale Watching“ - tour on our oak boat Sylvía has departed – at least for this year’s season. Evening trips are special for many reasons: First of all one gets to see the beautiful colours of the evening sun.
