Seydisfjordur in Eastern Iceland

Accessing Iceland's wild Eastern Fjords once required a long drive, internal flight or long sea voyage. But now direct flights ensure this untouched land of jagged mountains, mighty waterfalls and black sand beaches is easily within reach.

Picture postcard villages like Djúpivogur are a delight – complete with a pretty little harbour with colourful boats scattered like confetti beneath old wooden buildings.
