Reykjarfjörður

Reykjarfjörður is a side arm of Suðurfirðir, the southern part of Arnarfjörður. There are thermal springs and a small pool at Reykjarfjörður, Reyk in place names denoting hot springs. The farms are deserted and only summer homes are left, a typical story in the depopulated western fjords.
Summer inhabitants include sheep and arctic terns. The latter are extremely aggressive defending theis nests.
