Lighthouse and Fermented Shark

Sightseeing

Message from Elisa in Iceland

Right next to the sea you will find the lighthouse of Hjalteyri. The lighthouse itself looks quite different from the other ones in Iceland because it is completely open (except for the top).

But what else makes it interesting to walk to, is the house with fermented shark next to it. The shark hangs there to dry, but you can already enjoy the smell of it!
