Borea Adventures (Skutsiglingar ehf)
Borea Adventures is a small company, owned and operated by people who love being outdoors and enjoy the nature and culture of the North Atlantic. We like to share our experience by giving people access to these areas through safe and fun filled adventure holidays. Borea Adventures adheres to the principles of low impact, sustainable tourism. Our trips are "silent", as we try not to use any motorized vehicles. We like to encourage physical activity to suit any level of ability from easy sailing and hiking through to exhilarating action sports.
Borea is a fully licensed adventure guiding company based in Ísafjörður, the heart of the Westfjords of Iceland. The founders of Borea have always recognized the great potential for adventure tourism surrounding their home, yet little was being done to encourage it. They wanted to let people enjoy their home environment in the same way they had done since they were young. Borea was created in 2006 and focuses on both short day trips for everyone and anyone, and exclusive expeditions to remote corners of the Arctic. The company is operated by sailors, climbers, skiers, and sea kayakers that find their inspiration in the unique wilderness that surrounds them. All of our guides are local Icelanders and good friends that have designed each trip to operate in full harmony with nature.
