Today we departed from Akureyri on yet another cloudy day, even though the sun was shining on us now and then. We had a slight breeze but a magnificent flat fjord. Today our resident Humpback whales decided to take a little trip further north. So we found the 2 Humpbacks, Ryder and Piccolo, north of Hjalteyri. And what an amazing show they put on for us. We witnessed them lounge-feed nonstop for about the duration of the tour.

It was indeed a whaletastic day.
