About Fairytale at Sea
A small, friendly adventure tour company in Ólafsfjörður, North Iceland.
Our promise to you is that we will take you to places that very few people have seen — truly magnificent places that are extremely hard, or impossible, to reach from land.
Fairytale at Sea was founded in 2018 as a friendly activity and adventure day tour operator in Ólafsfjörður. We run jet ski tours in the sea around our hometown, and our aim is to make memories.
Ólafsfjörður sits on the Tröllaskagi peninsula, surrounded by steep mountains and the open North Atlantic. From the water, the coast between Ólafsfjörður and Hvanndalabjarg is one of the most dramatic in Iceland — and still very few visitors ever see it.
We keep things small and personal: guided tours only, reliable Yamaha WaveRunners, proper dry suits and radio helmets for everyone, and plenty of time to stop and enjoy the wildlife.
