Iceland Midnight Sun
Luxury All-Lesbian Cruise 2017
July 28 – August 4, 2017
Windstar Cruises ms Star Legend
A true bucket list trip! Situated in the North Atlantic just below the Arctic Circle, Iceland is known for its dramatic volcanic landscape of geysers, hot springs, waterfalls, glaciers and black-sand beaches. On board the all-suite ms Star Legend, you'll circumnavigate this isolated island, heading deep into remote fjords that only small ships can reach.
Cruise by Surtsey Island, formed by volcanic eruption in 1963, and witness formations that look millions of years old. Soak in the sky blue Myvatn Nature Baths in Akureyri, and treat your eyes to crayon-colored buildings, eccentric architecture, and crystalline waterfalls cascading over velvet green hills in the world's northernmost capital, Reykjavik. Who knows…you might even see one of the famed magical elves that so many Icelanders believe exist.
Dramatic scenery and curious communities coalesce on this week-long circumnavigation of Iceland. Explore a country few people will ever visit, and go far beyond the tourist hotspots to remote fjords, raging waterfalls, and small fishing villages. Get to know the independent and creative Icelanders, and watch whales and seabirds play offshore. This is yachting at its most inventive.
Your Ship - Windstar Cruises ms Star Legend
With only 212 guests, a Star Legend cruise will make you feel like you're on board your own private yacht almost as soon as you step aboard. The sitting area of your spacious, newly refurbished suite gives you an expansive ocean view — making it a welcome retreat. When you're ready to make an appearance, the lounges, club, casino and library are waiting to be explored. Take some "me" time in the tranquil WindSpa , enjoy a dip in the pool, work off that decadent dessert in the Fitness Center, and, of course, you are always welcome to visit the Bridge to examine navigation charts with the Captain. This all-suite yacht is large enough to pamper and entertain you, yet small enough to tuck into delightful tiny harbors and hidden coves that others can't reach.

Reykjavik, Iceland
Friday, July 28, 2017
 Welcome to Iceland! Treat your eyes to crayon-colored buildings, eccentric architecture, and crystalline waterfalls cascading over velvet green hills in the world's most northernmost capital, as lively and spontaneous as the geothermal activity beneath its surface.
Heimaey Island, Iceland (with scenic cruise to Surtsey Island)
Saturday, July 29, 2017
 Today we witness a world still in transition. Circle Surtsey Island, which rose from the sea in the 1960s. Next up, Heimaey, where a volcanic eruption created a modern-day Pompeii in 1973.
Seydisfjordur, Iceland
Sunday, July 30, 2017
Monday, July 31, 2017
 Today, relish in the private event happening just for you! You'll enjoy a concert, as well as popular local drinks and canapés – including the Icelandic delicacy, reindeer meat – at the photogenic Blue Church. You'll even have the chance to join a traditional ring dance after!
As bird watchers head to the remote beauty of Skalanes Nature Reserve, trekkers can make their way to spectacular Hengifoss Waterfall. Or simply stroll the quaint town of 700 with its colorful Norwegian kit-houses shipped in at the turn of the century.
Akureyri, Iceland
Tuesday, August 1, 2017
 Akureyri nestles like a gem at the head of Iceland's greatest fjord. Just a stone's throw from the Arctic Circle, it offers some of Iceland's warmest weather. The perfect place to ride an Icelandic horse or soak in the sky-blue Myvatn Nature Baths.
Isafjordur, Iceland
Wedmesday, August 2, 2017
 A breathtaking journey up Isafjordurup Bay precedes our arrival in Isafjordur, surprisingly urbane for a village of 2,600. Old Town's 19th century buildings take you back to the days of the tall ships, while the abandoned town of Hesteyri remains frozen in the 1940s.
Grundarfjordur, Iceland
Thursday, August 3, 2017
 Viking sagas come to life in the geography here, as does Jules Verne's tale Journey to the Center of the Earth. You may also be inspired to set pen to paper, but don't feel bad if words fail you. The views defy description.
Reykjavik, Iceland
Friday, August 4, 2017
 Your trip ends with breakfast this morning. Be sure not to miss one of the 25 wonders of the world, Reykjavik's Blue Lagoon. This geothermal spa is located on a lava field and is a steamy 99-102°F (37-39°C) year-round.
Cruise Highlights
• Soak in Reykjavik's famous Blue Lagoon, a soothing 98-104°F year-round.
• Sail past Surtsey Island, the youngest place on earth, created by an eruption in 1963.
• Visit the island of Heimaey, the Pompeii of the North, covered in ash by a devastating 1973 eruption.
• Admire the colorful historic houses of Seydisfjordur, imported from Norway by wealthy merchants at the turn of the 20th century.
• Hike to Hengifoss Waterfall, a silver tendril falling over cliffs striped by red strata.
• Stroll through the Botanical Gardens of Akureyri, located in the banana belt of Iceland.
• Take a polar flight to Grimsey Island and stand half in, half out of the Arctic Circle.
• Witness the rainbow-colored beauty of Godafoss, "Waterfall of the Gods," outside Akureyri.
• Meet a friendly Icelandic horse, brought to Iceland by the Vikings in the 9th or 10th century A.D.
• Board a boat for an excursion to Vigur Island, home to eider ducks, puffins, black guillemots, Arctic terns, and more.
• Sample "Viking sushi" (fermented shark), the national dish of Iceland.
• Complement your dip in the Blue Lagoon with one in the more intimate Myvatn Nature Baths.
