At Snæfellsnes we had two trips with two species each today! On our morning tour, we were lucky enough to come across both sperm whales and orcas. We started out by looking at a sperm whale lifting up his fluke, and then moved on to observe the orcas travelling and foraging. Our afternoon tour was a little bit more bumpy, and we spotted the sperm whales after some scouting. As we came into the sperm whale area, at least 5 of them came up from a deeper dive. We then also spotted a humpback whale that was foraging and travelling, to finish the trip with. Marie (Spotter)
The whales made us work for it today in Hólmavík but we eventually got nice looks at humpback whales on both our tours today. The whales were not going down so deep, so not so many tails, but we did get to see at least one new whale in the fjord that has not been seen here before. Judith (Tour guide)
