We had just as much luck as this morning. We spotted two pretty good minke whales. One of the two came up just beside the boat once and surprised everybody! In the end we had two quite good tours today!

A fantastic day and an even better tour! Soon after we started searching we spotted our first minke whale. It surfaced at least five times but was far away. When we finally got closer to it we waited and waited but it didn't come up again. Shortly after giving up on it we sp

It was a bit rougher than we had expected out there this afternoon, and we had to search for a long time before we saw anything. We spotted in total 3 groups of white-beaked dolphins, but they always disappeared after just surfacing a couple of times, so it was very difficul

A bit windy this afternoon, but the sea conditions were still pretty good. The engineer spotted a blow and as we turned the boat and stopped, we saw the flukes of a Humpback whale as it went for a deep dive! We spotted the Humpback once more but it didn't seem very intereste

We spent a lot of time searching for whales. Then all of a sudden we spotted two animals at once. They turned out to be a humpback whale and a minke whale. What a surprise! We haven't seen a humpback whale for weeks. Both whales surfaced slowly several times before they went

Big change from yesterday! We had a very nice and successful tour! First we spotted about three minke whales. The weather was good and the whales were easy to follow. There were also some dolphins around but we were so busy watching the minke whales that we couldn't pay a lo

This wasn´t a very good tour. We spent a long time searching and went really far out looking for whales. But somehow we couldn't find any. Once we saw a whale in the distance and once we saw a blow but the whale never came up again. At the end of the tour a few white-beaked

The sea was nice and calm today and we were lucky to find a Minke whale. We only spotted it once but then shortly we found another one which we could observe for a while. Towards the end of the trip we found a very playful group of white-beaked dolphins which were breaching

The weather wasn't as bad as we had anticipated, and quite soon we spotted a group of Harbour Porpoises. As we sailed on we spotted quite a few Minke whales throughout the trip, 5-7 individuals. A successful trip with lots of happy passengers :)

Again a very beautiful day: sunshine, snowy mountains, no wind. Perfect weather for a whale watching tour! We had some nice sightings today: minke whales and white-beaked dolphins. Our first sighting was a widely spread group of white-beaked dolphins. They were everywhere an

There is first snow on the mountains around and its realy beautiful. The visibility was perfect. Also the sea was not so rough. We saw a Minke whale very soon on the tour. We followed the whale and came pretty close, maybe 50metres. It was surfacing very long and also fast t

Our afternoon tour was even better. There was no wind at all and everybody (especially the crew :-)) enjoyed the calm sea. This made it very easy to spot whales and we could catch sight of them from far away. We had several minke whales around and a particularly good one at

Again we set off, very optimistic, we don't give up easily! We tried searching another area, but again were unsuccessful. I think all of our passengers today were at least able to enjoy the fresh air and the nice scenery, and hopefully they will be able to join us again with
