12/05/2016: What a beautiful second tour of the season we had! We could not go out yesterday due to bad weather conditions, but today we were spoiled with orca sightings. The first group we encountered just a few minutes into the tour in front of Ólafsvík. They had a with them, and these two small ones started playing around to the delight of our passengers. We got to see a spy hop and a slow head stand (see pictures)! When we headed further towards West, we spotted another group after a longer search, and these ones were travelling slowly, coming up on both sides of the boat. Some puffins were to be seen on the water as well, and we are still having Northern gannets around, too. Towards the end of our tour even the sun came out. What more could we wish for?
