Haraldssund is located on the east coast of Kunoy and is connected to the village of Kunoy on the west coast by a tunnel. To the east, it is linked to the town of Klaksvík on Borðoy by a causeway. The tunnel and the causeway were built in the late 1980s.
Two kilometers south of the village is a small ruin.
