South Iceland by boat


South Iceland by boat

A ferry called Herjólfur, operated by Eimskip , runs between the mainland and Vestmannaeyjar. Recently a new harbour was created in Landeyjar, shortening sailing times significantly, but as it frequently fills with sand the old harbour at Þorlákshöfn is also in use. Add to this the fact that high waves often occur on the route and you get very irregular travel times, so it's best to check the status of the ferry before showing up at the pier! If you're travelling by car, it can also be brought to the islands with the ferry.
