Elliðaey is a mysterious island off the coast of Iceland which has become known as “the world’s loneliest house”. With no permanent population and inhabited by an abundance of puffins, Elliðaey is an island shrouded in mystery. The main attraction to this tiny island is an old hunting lodge built in 1953 by the Elliðaey Hunting Association. Despite the misconception among foreign fans, the Icelandic singer and artist Björk does not live on the island, though she was given the opportunity to. Exploring this island and its hidden corners can be a calming and peaceful experience provided you are prepared for the elements.
