Neskaupsstadur is the largest town of the East, often called „Little Moskva” because of its socialistic past. The fish industry is the main basis of living.

Deep sea angling on the often mirror flat bay where you can watch the majestic mountains standing on their heads is simply unforgettable. The boat is well equipped for the purpose and the tackle awaits you on board. The distance from the capital is 752 km along the south coast. There are scheduled flights from the capital to Egilsstadir.
