Under a dozen year round inhabitants occupy the brightly painted 19th century wooden houses on Flatey Island in Breidafjordur Bay, Iceland. In summer the population explodes as holidaymakers arrive.

Flatey island, located in Breidafjordur bay on the northwestern part of Iceland is a tiny island. 

This remote little island has only one dusty road leading from the ferry dock through the so called old village. The old village consists of several beautifully kept old and restored houses in cheerful colours. The atmosphere in Flatey is very relaxed and everything is very quiet and tranquil

Another map by Samuel Eggertsson (1864-1949). This is Flatey island in Iceland. This edition of the map was published in 1945, but the island was surveyed by Eggertsson in 1906. This image was scanned from a postcard, hence the poor quality.
