Djúpivogur shore excursions

Djúpivogur is a small, peaceful fishing village in the southern East Fjords, at the foot of the pyramid-shaped Búlandstindur mountain. Ships usually anchor offshore and bring passengers into the harbour by tender. The village is small enough to explore on foot, and from here you can reach the Vestrahorn mountains, the town of Höfn and, on a long day, the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon.
