Information about Djúpivogur
Djúpivogur is a small harbour settlement on the Búlandsnes peninsula in East Iceland, with the pyramid-shaped Búlandstindur rising behind it. Fishing boats, colourful houses and broad coastal views give the waterfront an intimate character.
The town’s trading history reaches back to the 16th century. Langabúð, a red timber warehouse dating from 1790, now houses local cultural exhibits, while Eggin í Gleðivík lines the shore with 34 stone eggs representing local bird species. Coastal walks, black-sand beaches and birdlife are all subject to weather, season and the day’s conditions.
