Eyrarbakki 
Region: South Iceland
These are two historic villages on the south coast (Eyrarbakki and Stokkseyri). In the past Eyrarbakki was an important trading post and there were many fishing outfits located along the coastline, but the constant beating of the brakers and bad harbour conditions prevented such operations nowadays. The fish processing factories of the villages received fish for processing from fishing vessels, which unloaded their catch in the harbour of the town Thorlakshofn further to the west. A factory in Eyrarbakki manufactured teflon kitchen utensils from aluminium and exported most of the production.
