Flateyri
Flateyri is an Önundarfjörður village with an old bookshop, fishing heritage and fjord activities. Plan town time separately from a boat outing.
Why stop in Flateyri?
The old bookshop is a useful cultural focus for a visit to Flateyri. The village also connects visitors with the fjord through activities such as kayaking and sea angling. A walk in town and an organised water activity require different amounts of time and preparation.
Planning your visit
Check bookshop and museum opening before arranging your stop around them. For kayaking or fishing, confirm the departure point and what equipment the operator supplies. Leave room in your route for changes caused by fjord weather instead of fixing a tight onward drive after the activity.
