Map of Heimaey Hotels

Heimaey is a small island located off the southern coast of Iceland. It is the largest island in the Vestmannaeyjar archipelago and is known for its stunning natural beauty and unique geological features. The island is home to a population of around 4,500 people and is a popular destination for tourists looking to explore Iceland's rugged coastline and volcanic landscapes. Heimaey is perhaps best known for the eruption of the Eldfell volcano in 1973, which led to the evacuation of the entire island's population. The eruption created a new mountain and dramatically altered the island's coastline, leaving behind a stark and otherworldly landscape that is still visible today.
