Sefarerer´s day Seamans' Day & Festival of the Sea - June 6

The greatest celebration of the year in many fishing villages across the country and is celebrated the first weekend in June. Often a holiday for the whole villiage and always for seamen, there are rowing and swimming races and a chance for the young and not so young to test their skill and strength in contests from tugs of war to sea rescue. A fun filled and light hearted occasion with lots going on. It's a time when all Icelandic fishing vessels are in port and the crews celebrate with their families and visitors.
