WHALE WATCHING CLASSIC 09:00 Another day high up in Iceland. Ready to jump on a whale-watching boat, all our passengers entered well prepared with warm coats and cameras. Yet the temperature out on the ocean can be quite chilly. Nevertheless, we started sailing towards the common feeding grounds, searching for any signs of whales and […]

The Sun shining all over the bay and with the perfect visibility for […]
