Eyrarbakki’s heyday might be long gone, but the village is graced with beautifully-preserved buildings from 1890-1920, offering a glimpse into the past. The town has two museums, the Maritime Museum and the Árnessýsla Folk Museum built in 1765. The magical Flói Bird Reserve is a recognized area for about 70 species of wetland birds by the Bird Life International Association. It has a bird hide specially designed for wheelchair access.
