NS-2 Whales, Puffins & Sails

Sail on a traditional boat and enjoy the wonderful wildlife

Skjáflandi Bay is a great destination because of the birdlife and scenery. There are two islands in the bay, Lundey (Puffin Island) and Flatey (Flat Island), where a lot of birds nest. Therefore the bird life is colorful, puffins, arctic terns, guillemots, gannets and more are frequently seen during the tours. The beautiful mountains at the western part of the bay, called Víknafjöll, make a visit to the bay even more worth while.

This is a unique sailing tour that combines whale watching, bird watching and a sailing adventure aboard one of our two schooners. On board you experience the aura of past times by setting sails or assisting the skipper as a lee helmsman. The Schooners, Haukur or Hildur, take you to Lundey, the Puffin Island, as well as the traditional whale watching areas.
