bericht van Isleifur Eli

Grímsey is a tiny Icelandic island located just north of the Arctic Circle, known for its puffins and other seabirds. With only one settlement called Sandvík, it has a population of around 57 people in 2021. Despite its small size, Grímsey boasts a rich vegetation cover and supports large seabird breeding colonies. The island's economy revolves around commercial fishing, agriculture, and collecting seabird eggs. Visitors can reach Grímsey by ferry or air passenger service from Akureyri on the mainland. It's a cool spot to check out if you're into birdwatching or want to experience life on a remote Arctic island.
