Season 2013 has come to an end. On behalf of Gentle Giants I want to thank all of our passengers, cooperators and crew for making yet another summer so memorable. We have already started looking forward to- and preparing for next year.
September has been a good month with different whales and weather conditions coming and going. We never know before a tour what, where or when whales - big or small - might be encountered. That is also what makes whale watching so exciting; every trip is a new adventure for both pasengers and crew.
Weather in Iceland is always unpredictable; for more than a week we were blessed with great weather- and sea conditions. It has now changed again, but I would like to share with you some lines about a humpback trio we got to encounter some days ago:For several days we were following a group of three humpbacks on their doings in the bay here.
On 1st September we enter the first autumn month which means that we will cut down to two GG1 Whale Waching departures, scheduled daily at 9:45 and 13:15 throughout September.There are no more scheduled GG7 Big Whale Safari tours, but our speed boats are still available and could be used upon request.
At Gentle Giants we run scheduled tours daily, but we also arrange special- and private tours upon request. Like the other day when we got the opportunity to bring a group of VIP guest out for an exciting adventure on our bay.
Yesterday we were not only lucky with the weather, but also whale-wise. In the afternoon two uncommon visitors found their way into the bay. These special guests we had around were fin whales!In the beginning it took some time to figure out what whales we were actually watching.
Every now and then we are visited by whale species which are not considered common in our bay. That happened this afternoon when two fin whales were encountered. This is the second biggest whale species after the blue whales - which means this is BIG news.
