Weather permitting, we’ll sail along the picturesque seashore, offering stunning views of the Eysturoy villages: Morskranes, Kolbeinagjógv, the modern residential area of Strendur, Toftir, and Nes. You’ll also spot the windmills near Æðuvík and fish farms south of Kollafjørður.
As we sail, keep an eye out for seabirds. Depending on the season, you may encounter puffins, razorbills, and guillemots, adding an extra touch of wonder to your journey.
This tour combines breathtaking scenery, cultural storytelling, and a genuine fishing experience for an unforgettable day on the water.

Tangafjørður is a remarkable fjord, divided into distinct northern and southern sections by the side fjords Skálafjørður and Kaldbaksfjørður.
Spanning a total of 13.9 kilometers, its southern half is wider at 4.6 kilometers, while the northern half narrows to 3.7 kilometers. The deepest points in each section measure −85 meters, located offshore of Kolbeinagjógv and Hvítanes.
As Tangafjørður merges into Nólsoyarfjørður, the seafloor plunges dramatically to a depth of −120 meters. At the intersection of Kaldbaks-, Skála-, and Tangafjørður, you'll find reefs and skerries known as Flesjarnar skerries, which break the water’s surface and are marked by a lighthouse.
Its unique features and scenic views make Tangafjørður a fascinating destination to explore and admire.
