Fischersetur
About
Fischersetur is a local business in Iceland, operating as a museum at Austurvegur 21, 800 Selfoss, Islandia. The venue sits in Selfoss, a town in the south of the country, and its address places it within the settlement rather than on the coast.
Visitors have given Fischersetur a 4.4 out of 5 average across 115 reviews, a record that reflects steady approval among its visitors. The museum occupies its spot on Austurvegur, and Selfoss is among the nearby places that frame a visit to this part of the island. Reaching the venue from the main towns is straightforward, since Selfoss connects to the island's road network that links it to Reykjavik, Akureyri, Vik, Hofn, Keflavik, Husavik and Isafjordur.
Opening hours run from May 15 to Sep 15, Monday to Sunday, 13:00-16:00, while the venue is off from Sep 16 to May 14. Two photographs accompany the listing, and the website at http://www.fischersetur.is/index.cfm?lang=en&page=pages/start_en3 serves as its online reference.
Iceland's year divides between two main seasons, with cool summers and mild, wetter winters. Island cooking is built on seafood, lamb, rye bread baked in geothermal ground and fermented shark, alongside skyr. The Westman Islands are reached by ferry from Landeyjahöfn and by domestic flights to Heimaey, and grey and harbour seals haul out on Icelandic skerries while orcas and minke whales feed offshore. Surtsey emerged from a volcanic eruption in 1963 and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the venue's position in Selfoss makes it a practical stop for travellers moving between the island's southern towns and the wider region.
