What this zone is
Overview
How spearfishing is treated at Reykjavík Harbour — Gamla höfnin (Faxaflóahafnir harbour areas).
Harbour regulation for Faxaflóahafnir sf. (Hafnarreglugerð nr. 798/2009, art. 7) prohibits diving in the harbour areas without the harbourmaster's permission; the regulation covers Reykjavíkurhöfn (Old Harbour, Sundahöfn, Ártúnshöfði, Gufunes), Akraneshöfn, Grundartangahöfn and Borgarneshöfn. Spearfishing/diving inside the Old Harbour is therefore not permitted without authorisation.
