Haralssund is a town in the Faroe Islands situated on the island of Kunoy.

Haralssund 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 dam. The tunnel and the dam were built in the late 1980s.

2 kilometers south of the village there is a small ruin. Legend says that there was a Dutch community here many years ago.
