Seyðisfjörður has a population of 699 and is on the coast residing next to the Atlantic ocean. We wanted to visit the museum at Seyðisfjörður but unfortunately it was closed by the time we arrived. We found out soon enough that during winter everything is closed, when we arrived we had to ring to get the owners to open up the hotel! And guess what, we are the only occupants in the hotel. Which is actually quite nice, other than the fact that everything is closed. The bottle shop is only open for one hour, between 5 and 6pm.
Even all the restaurants are closed, nothing is open. The woman who came to open up the hotel rang someone who works at the gas station and she thankfully cooked some nice dinner for us which we had at the gas station. It was crumbed fish with rice, some curry and salad which tasted quite good. Otherwise we would have had to eat junk food for dinner.
This is Seyðisfjörður from the route 93 road which runs along a mountain. You can see a cruise ship's docked along the harbour.
Frozen waterfall along the Seyðisfjörður coastal road.
Cool looking orange painted street light.
One of the many colourful looking houses along the coastal road.
Night shot of the town. Pretty huh?
The blue church, it's apparently famous in this town.
Tomorrow we will be driving to Hofn which will again be another very long drive but this time along the coast. We should have some great views.
