Grimsey Airport features a 1 km long asphalt runway (18/36) crossing the Arctic Circle. Strong winds are common, especially on final for runway 18 due to terrain, and large seabirds are present. The airfield operates without a flight information service; Unicom 118.1 may be used but is not always reachable.
