From the port in Akureyri, we boarded an 18-seat propeller plane for one of the wildest detours of our Iceland cruise, Grimsey Island, a tiny fishing village that sits directly on the Arctic Circle. In this video: the nerve-wracking flight out, our first puffin sightings up close, and the moment we officially crossed into the Arctic Circle at the island's iconic pole marker.
