Seydisfjordur, Iceland Cruises

Seydisfjordur, Iceland Cruise Port

• The picturesque Bláa Kirkjan is one of the historic timber buildings in town; this photogenic blue church also features live music on Wednesday evenings during the summer months.
   
• The mighty waterfall known as Gufufoss is near the fjord, and one of several area waterfalls (most of them don't have a name, however). As you're hiking to the top, you'll see all kinds of flora and fauna, including eider ducks and Iceland’s famous puffins.
   
• The Skaftfell Center for Visual Arts is a great place to see the strides Seydisfjordur is making toward creating a thriving arts scene. While a meeting place for local artists and writers to get together, it's also features permanent and rotating exhibitions.
   
• History and technology buffs will enjoy the Tækniminjasafn Austurlands, where you can learn about the town's telecommunications history (with some fishing thrown in). This technical museum is housed in two buildings, where you'll see exhibits that touch on innovations in areas such as mechanics, electricity, communications, commerce, and architecture.
