Fákasel

4.6(16 reviews)

About

Fákasel serves Iceland from Vatnsveituvegur in 110 Reykjavík, placing it in the capital area on the island's south-west corner. The address sits within Reykjavík's municipal boundaries, close to the city's western edge.

A 4.6 out of 5 average across 16 reviews gives the business a solid standing, drawn from a modest set of ratings. Reykjavík anchors the island's population and transport, while Akureyri, Vik, Hofn, Selfoss, Keflavik, Husavik and Isafjordur spread around the coast, so the capital location is the most accessible base for a visit. Reaching the venue from those towns is straightforward, since Reykjavík sits at the centre of the island's road network.

The business keeps a website at http://www.fakur.is/, which carries its current information.

Skyr, rye bread baked in geothermal ground and fermented shark are traditional Icelandic foods, the kind of things worth trying while on the island. Þorrablót, a midwinter feast of traditional food, is celebrated on Icelandic islands in January or February. Many Icelandic islands are volcanic, built from basalt lava and ash, with black sand and lava fields. Grey and harbour seals haul out on Icelandic skerries, and orcas and minke whales feed offshore.
