Vigur - Paradise Island

There is always something charming about small islands, and the harmony of thousands of birds in Vigur completes the beautiful landscape. Over the years, the island Vigur has earned itself a great reputation is therefore a must on any itinerary. Its five friendly inhabitants welcome you with their relaxed easy manner and somehow, one feels that time stands still at Vigur.

After a half hour boat ride from Isafjordur, you take a leisurely walk around the island. It´s a perfect opportunity to see the abundance of birds in their natural environment. The island is a home for thousands of birds e.g. eider ducks, arctic terns, puffins, black guillemot and more. The only wind mill in Iceland is located in Vigur. Refreshments are served by the farmer’s family in a mid-19th century house.

Prior to heading back, you can visit the smallest post office in Europe (which is located on the island)and send home a card or two. The tour takes 3 hours.
