Today we had a moderate Eastern wind making the fjord surface quite choppy in patches with less protection from the mountains. The skies started off with around 50% cloud cover, however, this decreased to less than 10% by the end of the day.

On our morning tour we sailed out to East of the Green Buoy where we saw 3 Humpback Whales. From our fish finder data we could see very large patches of fish near the bottom of the fjord and this is presumably what the whales were here for. One of the whales, Camel, swam north fairly quickjly and by the time the rib arrived it was no longer sighted.

In our afternoon we sailed to the same place and observed the other two whales once again, diving and surfacing frequently. On 1 occasion the whale surfaced very close to us allowing all of our passengers to hear the mighty breath.
