As an optional extra, you can add a fish soup during the booking process. The captain will then serve a homemade fish soup to all of you.

Rachel Morales –
The sailboat tour is a must for nature lovers. Easily one of our favorite parts of the trip. We saw so many animals including puffins, ducks, gannets, seals, and of course, sheep hanging out on the cliffs. Birgir is a fantastic host, and a retired diver with many charming stories of the caves along Nolsoy island, and he makes a mean fish soup. If you’re lucky, Josh from Utah will be onboard as Birgir’s first mate. A very interesting a knowledgeable person to meet while on vacation. 10/10 would recommend.
