Did you know that waterfalls are not only beautiful but also incredibly important to the environment? They help to maintain the health of ecosystems by aerating the water and providing habitats for a variety of plant and animal species. Plus, the negative ions produced by falling water can have a positive effect on our mood and well-being.

Have you visited any stunning waterfalls lately?

Take a dip in the beautiful Blue Lagoon in Iceland!

Iceland is home to the world's largest natural hot spring area, located in the Reykjanes peninsula. There are over 500 geothermal springs in the area, some of which reach temperatures as high as 140°F (60°C). The area is also home to some of the largest geothermal power plants in the world, providing renewable energy to the region.

Due to the proximity of The Blue Lagoon from the Keflavík Airport, many of our clients visit this iconic geothermal spa on their way into Reykjavik. They even have designated suitcase lockers for this specific purpose!

Don't forget to pack a swimsuit!

5 reasons why we ❤️ beluga whales:

1) Often described as "gentle giants" these highly social creatures are known to form strong bonds with their pods, and will often swim and play together.

2) They are highly curious, often approaching boats and people in the water to investigate.

3) They communicate using a variety of clicks, whistles and squeals, and some even imitate human speech!

4) Beluga whales have also been known to use tools, such as rocks and pieces of ice, to break open clams.

5) They always look like they're smiliing! 🙂

Reminder that we have multiple tour options for you to get up close and meet these beautiful animals in person in Churchill, Manitoba!

Happy Waterfall Wednesday!
Today we admire Athabasca Falls. The Athabasca River flows from the Columbia Icefield through Jasper National Park, Alberta. With an 80 foot drop, over time the force of the falls have created a canyon. As the water cascades into the gorge, the force of the falls is so strong that it causes one millimetre of stone to be chipped away each year! There is a 1 km hike you can take from the parking lot, with a paved trail that bridges over the gorge.
