Flateyri

Flateyri is a village in the Westfjords of Iceland, located on a sandspit of the same name along the northern shore of Önundarfjörður fjord. The village has a population of around 300 residents and is part of the municipality of Ísafjarðarbær.

Flateyri has a long history as a fishing village and has long been an important settlement along Önundarfjörður. Its location on a low-lying spit creates a natural harbor, but also exposes the village to natural hazards.

In October 1995, a devastating avalanche struck Flateyri, claiming the lives of 20 people. The disaster had a profound impact on the community and became a turning point in avalanche protection efforts in Iceland.

Following the avalanche, extensive avalanche protection barriers were constructed above the village. These defensive structures have since proven effective and have at least once protected Flateyri from another avalanche event.

Rising above Flateyri is Eyrarfjall, whose ridges reach elevations of up to approximately 660 meters. Two gullies, Innra-Bæjargil and Skollahvilft, descend from the mountain slopes and have been the source of avalanches directed toward the village. Two guiding dams have been built above the settlement to divert avalanches away from homes and infrastructure.
