BEST SUMMER DAY
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.

ACCOMPANIED BY A MINKE
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.

SIESTA TIME
Today has been an awesome day out at sea. First of all the weather could not have been better, it was simply amazing. Once we had left the harbour we realized that also the sea was flat as a mirror.

BEAUTIFUL WEATHER AND WHALES
Yesterday and the day before the humpback whales continued their pretty acrobatic behaviour: they breached, rolled over, approached the boats many times, two swam in a pair, one was seen surrounded by some playful dolphins.
