A REAL SUMMER DAY
Temperature ca. 19°C, calm, good sea conditions and many whales. A perfect day for whale watching! After cancelling our trips yesterday due to bad weather, we were able to go out today in beautiful weather conditions, with a lot of whales in the bay - blue whales, humpbacks and a large pod of white beaked dolphins! A busy day today in the good weather and many people joined our tours.

DIVING WITH THE WHALES
Yesterday we had a nice visit from Wade and Robyn Hughes, who are experienced divers. We took them out on both our boats at 16:45, where Wade did several attempts to dive with the humpbacks. The humpbacks were feeding and swimming and diving for a long time.

THE "SLEEPING" HUMPBACK
This morning our crew and passengers onboard Faldur had special encounters with a humpback whale. The humpback was sleeping next to the boat ... First of all, crew and passengers thought they were seeing driftwood, but after a closer look it was clear that this was a humpback sleeping and logging on the surface.

June Arrives: New Departures Added
The first month of the whale watching season 2007 has gone by and one can certainly say that the month of May was a good start of the season – despite some days of rough weather conditions. In May five species of whales were spotted in the bay – from the smallest harbour porpoises to the mighty blue whales! From June 1st several departures will be added to our whale watching schedule.
