A Taste of Sudureyri

    hrs Estimate Duration
  • Snack

Walk through the eco-friendly fishing village of Suðureyri while sampling Icelandic delicacies made with fresh seafood and other ingredients that reflect the local cuisine. Although still somewhat remote, Suðureyri has become more popular since a tunnel was built through the mountain that once isolated the village. Fishing continues to drive the economy as you will discover on the village’s renowned Seafood Trail, whose businesses will offer bite-sized samples of the sustainably sourced seafood caught in the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The boats that leave Suðureyri are so fast and the fishermen so efficient that the local catch is typically on sale in Europe a mere 36 hours after being pulled from the sea. As you meander about the harbor and through a seafood processing house, you will sample a variety of dishes that may include favorites such as fried cod cakes, halibut tempura and smoked salmon.
