Berufjörður

Berufjörður extends for 20 kilometers along the eastern coast of Iceland, with steep cliffs rising from waters reaching depths of up to five kilometers.

The fjord's ports have supported maritime activities and fishing industries since the early settlements, contributing substantially to eastern Iceland's economic development through centuries.

The village of Djúpivogur on the western shore maintains traditional Icelandic customs while incorporating modern artistic installations near the waterfront.

Route 1, the main road circling Iceland, provides access to the fjord throughout the year, with optimal visiting conditions from May through September.

Mount Búlandstindur forms a natural pyramid of layered basalt reaching 1,069 meters above the fjord's western shore.
