What an afternoon! Probably the nicest light of the whole trip, and discovered a new beach with fantastic wave viewing cliffs. And I saw orcas in the distance - that's a first for me here! #Iceland - ThreadSky

Orcas are my fav animal. You were so fortunate to see them in the wild. I am still looking. 👀

Excellent! Have seen orca on a boat trip off the north coast of Snæfellsnes...but never from the land. Good to know they are around.

Indeed! Off the beach (a long, long way) from Malarrif.

It was, although I suddenly realised I was a wee bit chilly...

I love the color of those waves!🌊🩵💙🩶🖤 Proof that the ocean is profoundly beautiful without sunshine or dazzling sunsets! Although I love those too!😉

Thank you Christine - the colours were remarkable, even once the sky was grey (but it was a good, brooding grey)!

Orcas! 😮

Orcas! What a treat 🙂

I know! I've seen humpbacks in the Westfjords before (and on a whaling trip from Húsavík) but never orcas. Very thrilling :) They were miles away though!

Any billionaire ships floating nearby you could send the orcas to?

Haha, I think they were too busy fishing, or something :)
