14:00 - In the afternoon, we sailed out once again to see what the bay more had to offer. The clouds were starting to disperse a little, giving us glimpses of the blue sky above. As soon as we headed out from the harbour, we got the news that there might be a whale very close by. Sure enough, just by the breeding islands for the Atlantic puffins, was a humpback whale! The individual seemed to be travelling back out into the bay, so we could follow its dive sequences outwards. After some nice fluke dives we decided to leave it be, and sailed onwards. All of a sudden, plenty of seabirds started to appear, and we came across another humpback whale. It seemed to be a very good feeding area, because suddenly bubbles started to appear from underneath the surface - a sign that the whale tried to bubble net feed. Then, we could see the humpback whale tail slapping several times, followed by some rolling on its side. We were all amazed by the greatness of this whale, but soon after decided to leave it be on its own. After, we also came across a pod of 5-6 white beaked dolphins that came very close and even swam under our boat, giving us nice close-up views of their pretty grey and white pattern. What a fantastic afternoon!
