For a long time, the village was isolated behind high mountains.
Since 1996, it has been connected to Ísafjörður by a tunnel.
The economy revolves primarily around sustainable fishing; the fishing company Fisherman and the clothing brand 66°North have their roots here.
Visitors come for the tranquil fjord, the geothermal pool, the seafood restaurant, tours focused on the fishing industry, and the quintessential Icelandic village atmosphere.
The church dates back to 1937.
