At the end of May, North Sailing will offer the first out of six scheduled 3 day sailings this summer. We are talking about a three day exciting adventure sailing on Haukur, Iceland's only schooner, which offers you a close encounter with nature, interesting historic sites, magnificent midnight sun, sail training, whale & bird watching & crossing the Arctic circle at the Island of Grímsey.

Sailing on Haukur is a unique opportunity to experience the exceptional nature and culture of the northern coastline of Iceland. The tour offers you three days of sailing, wildlife watching and a chance to see some of the most  stunning locations in the north of Iceland.
