We had two wonderful tours out of Hólmavík today and could see pilot whales and dolphins socialising before we had even got on the boat! Many people from town including the school children had come down to look at them. On the water we watched them with dolphins leaping around and pilot whales spy-hopping, then went out to the humpbacks with 12-15 in the area. Amazing! On the afternoon trip all three species were in the same area and so we got looks at all three once again, one after the other as the all milled around in the deep water. Judith (Tour guide)
We had two tours out of Ólafsvík today, and our morning tour got to see three different species of cetaceans – Minke whales, white-beaked dolphins, and a pod of pilot whales! Our afternoon trip had Minke whales all around the boat for the majority of the tour, and even some sunshine! Marie (Spotter)
