The Eastern fjords fog, sometimes dense, mystifies the magnificent landscape and fantasy brings folklore and stories of elves, trolls and ghosts to life. Fjords cut into the southeast coast of Iceland, separated by magnificent and beautifully shaped mountains. In extension of the fjords, valleys reach far inland towards the highlands. On the black sandy shores, the waves of the North Atlantic Ocean break and rich birdlife flourishes. Djúpavogshreppur covers the southernmost part of Iceland’s East Fjords. The coastline is jagged with three main fjords Álftafjörður, Hamarsfjörður and Berufjörður cutting into the land, surrounded by steep, rocky mountain sides and limited lowlands.
