Both are very traditional Icelandic fishing villages with interesting museums. From Reyðarfjörður you can drive through a tunnel to Fáskrúðsfjörður (17 km), a small village in a stunning fjord where you will find a unique museum depicting the story of and artefacts from French sailors who set base there in the 18th century.

 
Borgarfjörður Eystri, Stórurð boulders

Borgafjörður Eystri (78 km) is a charming place, known for exceptional beauty and mountainous setting. A marked hiking trail leads to Stórurð Boulders, one of Iceland’s most stunning wonders. A visit to this fjord by the outernmost ocean is an unforgettable experience.
