ISOFJORDUR, ICELAND, MEANING ICES FJORD, is a town in northwest Iceland with a population of about 2,600. Our cruise ship docked there for a day. It is located on a spit of sand, or eyri, in the Skutulsfjörður fjord which meets the waters of the larger Isafjarðardjúp fjord. Fishing has been the main industry and the small town has one of the largest fisheries in the country. Despite its historical isolation from the rest of Iceland, the town has an urban atmosphere with a school of music, a hospital, a cultural center with a library and showrooms and a distance learning center for the 7,000 residents of the Westfjords area.
