Move over Hafnarfjörður whales, there’s a new catch in town.

A superpod of more than 100 dolphins was spotted near the Reykjavík harbour on April 3. As reported by RÚV, Marine and Freshwater Institute biologist Sverrir Daníel Halldórsson presumed the cetaceans were hunting for food.

Dolphins are commonly found near Iceland’s coast. However, they are rarely seen in harbours.
