MY SPECIAL TRIP TO FLATEY

Recently, I was asked to guide a special trip to Flatey, a small island situated in the Northwest of Húsavík. This was something new for me as well, so I was quite excited and happy at the same time to do this.

BACK WITH THE WHALES

Finally, after ten months, I’m back to Húsavík and the whales. Now that I’m here again, I know why I love this place so much: the beautiful landscape, the midnight sun, the hot springs, all those nice people and friends I’ve met, and of course the whales … I’ve already gone out many times since I arrived and have had so many great encounters with the whales.

AN UNFORGETTABLE EVENING TOUR

The bay is completely full of life and loads of whales have been spotted on our last tours – up to five species on a tour! Yesterday was a perfect day for whale watching – great weather and loads of whales.

HUMPBACKS MAIN STARS

The blue whales seem to have left the bay but hopefully they will arrive soon again. It has been very nice having those biggest mammals in our bay and according to a whale specialist in Husavik, 14 different individual blue whales have been spotted in the bay since 7th June.

ORCAS!

A group of Orcas has been spotted in one of the afternoon trips today. Orcas are rarely seen in the bay and it's always an unexpected surprise. There were around 6 of them swimming calmly close to boat Sylvía.
