The whale watching companies North Sailing and Gentle Giants have posted on their facebook pages that a blue whale had been spotted in the bay yesterday, the first one of the season.

A pod of orcas was also spotted yesterday, as have other species in the last few days, which tells us that the whale watching season has a great start this year.

The whale-watching companies Norðursigling and Gentle Giants state on their Facebook page that yesterday a whale was seen in the bay. Is it the first time this season that it has happened.

A pod of killer whales was also seen, as well as other species seen in recent days, so it's safe to say that the whale watching season is off to a good start.
