About Hafnarsvæði

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SW, so wind from the NE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 6°C: 5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A harbour, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SW. Wind from the SW blows onshore, wind from the NE blows out to sea, and wind from the NW or SE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. We found no boat hire, sailing school or club within 10 km on the map, so bring your own boat here. The sea is about 3°C in February, its coldest month (5/4 or 6/5, hood, boots and gloves), and 9°C in July, its warmest (4/3 or 5/4, boots and gloves). No town nearby. Nearest beds: Husavik Northeast, 63 km. Nearest airport: Grímsey Airport (GRY), 1 km.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
