The Breiðafjörður Boat Museum has during the last years collected more than twenty old boats from the Breiðafjörður area and saved most of them from destruction. Some are kept in the condition as time has left them, others are being repaired and still others have been or are being completely rebuilt. This mission is going on and therefore the museum is a living workshop as well as a showplace. The primus motor is Aðalsteinn Valdimarsson, an aging boatbuilder raised in the islands of Breiðafjörður, who is at work in the museum almost every day. You can visit him there although there are no specific opening hours. The Breiðafjörður Boat Museum is located in the same building as the Tourist Information and the Hlunnindasýningin, a few hundred meters before entering the village of Reykhólar. Because of limited facilities, however, many of the boats are kept elsewhere.
