Happy New Year to all our friends around the world. A new year has begun with new exciting opportunities as we celebrate our 20th year in offering wildlife experiences. But before leaving last year behind, we would like to take a quick look back at our highlights of 2020.
It certainly was a very special and challenging year for the whole world.

December has arrived and Christmas is around the corner. Our boats have been decorated with the annual lights. The boats look great and it certainly gives a nice Christmas atmosphere to Húsavík harbour and brightens up this darkest period of the year.

"Húsavík always looks beautiful. No matter the season. I love it here", says our captain and guide Daniel González from Spain, who is spending his first winter in Húsavík. There have been wonderful winter days recently with cold temperatures, snowfall and sunshine.

Even though our season has officially ended for scheduled tours this year, we are still always ready to try to accommodate any private requests. This morning our captain Sverrir took a small group of Mexicans out for a private sea angling tour on board Aþena.

Earlier than usual, our whale watching season has come to an end today, 30th of September.
We'd like to thank all our passengers for having joined our tours throughout the last months, but also our crew on land and on the boats for making the tours possible.

As September continues, nature is constantly changing. In their autumn dress, plants and flowers appear in red, orange and yellow whilst the green summer colours slowly faint away. As the sun rises and travels over the bay, the mountains and coastline therefore shine in many different colours.
