The village is full of life with eco-friendly long line fishing and fish processing, as they key livelihood. Fresh, frozen and salted cod, haddock and Atlantic catfish are exported to key markets in Europe and US. Enjoy a guided walk through Patreksfjörður fishing village and the harbor area. On the way we will enjoy a fish tasting with few delicious stops, tasting many different types of fresh fish. We will visit the main fish factory in Patreksfjörður to learn about the whole process of first class fish products.
