Cruise through the stunning natural harbor and setting sight on the towering clifftops that envelop the surrounding landscape. Gliding across these pristine waters, gaze at the thriving colonies that are home to several species of sea birds. Your guide explains the variety of birdlife (Puffins!) that migrate here to breed. Beneath the waves the ocean is home to orcas, dolphins and porpoises, if you are lucky, whales can often be spotted in these waters. Sail into Klettshellir, a stunning natural cave that is famed for its excellent acoustics.After circumnavigating the island, return to Heimaey harbor. We saw puffins in the Shetlands. They nest high up on cliffs on a ledge. So if you are on land, go to the cliff edge and look down. Or if you are in a boat train your binoculars up to the cliff sides. Unless they are just walking around town. Now that would be a hoot! I read that the Westman Islands have the largest puffin colony in the world. Even if their numbers are down, there has to still be a lot. Also puffins begin to migrate in August after they wrap up their nest and fledge season. So if your cruise is late August or September, don't get too excited about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Peregrina651 Posted June 4, 2021 #1277 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Comfort Check opened for our sailing over the past couple of days. It seems that not everyone on our roll call had access to it at the same time. It rolled out over a couple of days. A headshot is required in step 1 in order to complete the advanced check in. Here are the guidelines: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So at some point the countdown goes away and you can actually enter your info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are the guidelines: The gentleman on the right looks far too happy to be allowed to board. He has probably got all his desired ShoreX, he was upgraded from his guarantee DV cabin to an Explorer Suite and he had the drinks package applied retrospectively despite paying less for the cruise than others. With social distancing we will all hear him telling the adjacent table his good fortune. And finally, he does not look well at all, very grey skin tone. That in itself should be reason to deny boarding. seriously though fellow travellers I hope you all get your ShoreX you desire when they open shortly. I am on the 31/7 departure so will be in the next batch released whenever that may be. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoggyEthan Posted June 4, 2021 #1292 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Yup, exactly as was obvious, this was a terrible idea to unlock multiple cruises for all travelers at the exact same time. The website is down. I was lucky that it opened a few minutes early so I got the first two days. FYI the Geobaths in Akureyri were not listed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
