Seyðisfjörður is a charming village that exudes creativity and colour. Visitors can admire the vibrant cottages and artist studios that dot the area, along with its famous Rainbow Street that leads to a picturesque blue church.
The town’s popularity is unsurprising, as it blends nature and local life, beckoning tourists to grab their hiking gear and cameras. Dating back to the early 20th century, the town’s wooden houses boast Norwegian-style architecture. The fjord has been an important trading centre since the 19th century, thanks to its natural harbour and proximity to Europe. The weekly ferry that docks here is a sight, connecting Iceland to Denmark and the Faroe Islands. During summer, the Norröna ferry transports numerous campervans and 4-wheel-drives, allowing their owners to explore Iceland’s natural beauty.
