Yachting in Iceland. Sailing expedition through the country of icebergs, geysers and waterfalls

About the event

Incredible landscapes, sails, waterfalls, geysers and glaciers! See Iceland from the sea and explore it from the inside! Iceland is a magical country. It feels like you’re on a different planet than northern Europe. We want to do it again! Meet the second expedition to the land of glaciers, lava fields, waterfalls and geysers.

Programme

Day 1:we meet in Reykjavik marina at 17:00. Instruction on safety, settlement, purchase of products. And a welcome dinner!

Day 2:Reykjavik-Akranes crossing 14 miles (2.5 to 3 hours)

In Arkanes there is an old lighthouse and a tradition to paint stones under the flags of states and just paint stones (we will definitely paint and leave our own!)

Day 3:Akranes-Hwamswick 20 miles (3-3.5 hours)

we have a picnic of freshly caught fish

Day 4:Hwamsvik-Hafnarfjördur 32 miles (5 hours)

The third most populous city in Iceland is insanely cute and beautiful. The number of sunny days in it, according to local residents, is much more than in Reykjavik, and special cats walk the streets, who are looking for caresses and grooming from polite tourists and locals. The port in this city is older than Reykjavik and has long been considered the "main" port. In our program there will be a walk and a small quest in this city.

Day 5:Hafnarfjordur-Keflavik 17 miles (3 hours)

Let’s visit the giant – he snores in his house by the rock and sometimes makes other “interesting” sounds?

we'll walk around the viking museum, if we want, we'll go inside

and of course, don't miss the Maritime Museum - there are hundreds of models of ships. I am particularly impressed that this is the work of one man!

Day 6:Keflavik-Sandgerdi 12 miles (2 hours)

In addition to the nature museum, there is a wonderful thermal pool with several slides. Children, and adults with pleasure relax and frolic.

Day 7:Sandgerdi-Reykjavik 27 miles (4.5 hours)

let's go back to Reykjavik. There we are waiting for the final dinner on the yachts, new records of miles and wind in the logbooks! the next morning we leave the yachts, but our journey continues - ahead of a rich land program

Day 8:We are going to look at the beauty of the “Golden Ring” – the Gulfoss waterfall and the large Geyser. We will definitely dive into the thermal springs. We'll sleep at the hotel.

Gulfoss Falls: From a distance, it seems that the Hvitau River simply disappears into the ground, but when you get closer, you see how colossal masses of ice melt water rush into a 32-meter crevice. A thick veil hangs over this place.

Valley of Geysers: Here you can see the colored earth and craters filled with boiling water of incredible colors. One of them, a rounded crater, regularly changes the color of the water - it becomes greenish, then bright brown. Two more craters, collectively called Blesi, have an irregular shape and are connected by a small spill. Each crater has a different color of boiling water: one has an ultramarine, the other has a greenish one!

DAY 9- SKOUGAFOSS AND SELLALANDSFOSS WATERS

We go south to Skougafoss and Sellalandsfoss waterfalls. Explore the black sand beach of Reynisfjara. For the night we will stay in an authentic hotel nearby, where we will have a delicious dinner

DAY 10- ICE LAGOON BY JÖKULSAUHRLON

We head to the most enchanted place - the ice lagoon of Jökulsaurlon. A similar lagoon exists only in Greenland. We’ll learn what it’s like to be in the midst of real icebergs. With those who wish, we will take a boat to the deepest lagoon. Then back to Reykjavik.

DAY 11- RETURN TO REYKJAVIK

We relax and walk around the northern capital, try local dishes and drinks, buy souvenirs. For the doers, go to the Blue Lagoon!

And we share.

DAY 12- HOMECOMING

In the morning we head to the airport and return to our planet.

Please let us know in advance if you will be taking excursions to the Ice and Blue Lagoons so we can book them in advance. The cost of visiting the lagoons is not included in the price.
