🐧 Puffins spotted!

Seeing these little cuties is always a special bonus on our tours, as their colony is not very close to us. ✨ While we can’t guarantee sightings, we’re usually lucky enough to spot these charming seabirds several times throughout the summer!

Have you ever seen a puffin in the wild? 🧡

Good morning! 💥
It has been one week already of seeing lunge feeding on most of our tours in Akureyri 🐋❤️
One of the coolest whale behaviors to witness and lately often with more whales feeding together at once.
Humpback whales feed on small fish and krill, and right now it looks like our fjord is full of it.. and we definitely can’t complain!

May has given us 100% sighting success so far, plus views like this... What more could we ask for? 🌊

Looks like the humpbacks booked the all-you-can-eat buffet in Eyjafjörður 🍽️
Fun fact: those lines along the humpbacks’ jaws and throat expand into a huge pouch while feeding, kind of like pelicans do, allowing them to take in massive amounts of water and fish at once.🐋🐟✨

Wohoo! 🙌 Orca whales in our fjord today!
Orca are the dream of many whale watchers. Even though Orca are common in Icelandic waters, they are not regular visitors of our fjord. Why? Probably because these black and white dolphins do not commonly find their favourite food here. However, we have noticed that during the first quarter of the year, when the North Atlantic Herring is in higher numbers on our shores, we have more chances to spot Orca. Herring is the preferred prey for some types of Orca here in Iceland and thus, they follow the food. Since Orca are one of the most uncommon sightings for us, encounters like these are a super special treat ❤️
