Seabird hunting in Iceland

Region: South Iceland
Coordinates: 64.1265206° N 22.3274393° W

seabirds

These sea birds are really worthwhile fun. The list of species that may be hunted legally is extensive and Iceland is often the only place where hunters can add to their collection.

The distance from the capital to the hunting areas on the contry’s largest bay is short. Specially well equipped boats are used.

The season for most of the sea birds runs from September 10th to May 10th and the best time for shooting specimens for mounting is during January to April.
