Right at the edge of the fjord, you'll find the hauntingly beautiful Garðar BA 64, Iceland's oldest steel ship. Beached here since 1981 after a long life as a whaling and fishing vessel, its rusty skeleton tells a story of the region's maritime past against a dramatic backdrop. It's an easy and popular stop right by the road, perfect for capturing some incredible photos and soaking in the quiet, melancholic atmosphere of this coastal giant.
