Fish And Dine Árnafjørður

Description This is an authentic full-day experience in the Faroe Islands. First, you begin with a boat tour in one of the most beautiful areas of the Northern Islands. While sailing through dramatic landscapes, you cast your fishing line and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. You depart from the marina in Árnafjørður on Borðoy. Here, you sail in a traditional Faroese boat that represents one of the finest forms of Faroese craftsmanship. As the boat moves along the coast, you see steep cliffs, ravines, and small sea grottoes. Meanwhile, keep an eye out for seals, as this area is part of their natural habitat. Throughout the tour, the crew also protects wildlife and respects the marine environment. Next, you sail along the coastline of Bergið and cross the fjord toward the headland Lisshøvdi. Then, it is time to cast your fishing line. Several fish species live in these waters. For example, haddock and Atlantic cod often take the bait. Afterwards, you return to the marina in Árnafjørður.
