Ólafsvík is a fishing town located on the northern side of the Snæfellsnes peninsula in western Iceland. It was one of the country's major trading posts during the Danish trade monopoly period and received its municipal rights in 1687. Today, the town maintains its strong connection to maritime activities and fishing industry while being a gateway to the Snæfellsjökull National Park.
The town's cultural heritage is deeply rooted in its fishing history, with old warehouses and fishing artifacts telling stories of its past. The nearby Snæfellsjökull glacier, made famous by Jules Verne's novel "Journey to the Center of the Earth," adds to the area's cultural significance.
