Borgarfjarðarhöfn is the perfect place to photography puffins. You can come so close to them. Since a short time, there is a hideout, which is a bit warmer than outside. Especially nice if you are in pre-season there. You will be asked for a donation of 1000 isk to enter the hideout, but it is worth it.
