Bolungarvik

Iceland

Bolungarvík is a small fishing village in the Westfjords of Iceland, at the mouth of the Ísafjarðardjúp fjord. A fishing community for centuries, it was isolated until road tunnels arrived in 2010. Visitors can see the Ósvör Maritime Museum recreating a 19th-century fishing outpost, the natural history museum, the old church, and the bird cliffs and views of Hornstrandir, the uninhabited nature reserve across the fjord.
