Best Coastal Stays in Súðavík
Coastal stays in Súðavík sit on Álftafjörður fjord, 14 km along Route 61 from Ísafjörður, the Westfjords town most travelers fly into before driving north. Five properties here put the water at the front door: apartments and holiday homes with sea, fjord or mountain views from the terrace or balcony, and in two cases a private dock's worth of shoreline garden. This guide covers those five, from a harbourfront apartment on Aðalgata to a four-bedroom guesthouse with sea-view rooms, so a Westfjords loop stop lands directly on the fjord rather than a street back from it.

Álftafjörður's Working Shoreline, Not a Resort Coast
Súðavík apartment sits on Aðalgata, the village's main street, 13 km from Ísafjörður Airport along Route 61. Its balcony and terrace both look toward Álftafjörður, and the listing notes travelers rating the two-person trip location at 8.5, a detail that lines up with a fjord view a short walk from the harbour rather than a hillside street further back. The full kitchen and coffee machine matter here since Súðavík's own restaurant options thin out fast once the summer season ends, and Ísafjörður's dinner options sit a fifteen-minute drive away on Route 61, a real factor for anyone arriving after dark.
Sudavik guesthouse, 14 km from Ísafjörður Airport, backs onto the fjord with sea-view rooms and a garden terrace, and its listing separately notes 18 km to Pollurinn, the geothermal pool in Ísafjörður, for travelers weighing a soak into the itinerary. The property runs a shared kitchen and lounge alongside private bathrooms and parquet floors, useful for a multi-night stay rather than a single overnight on the Westfjords loop. Guests rated its two-person-trip location 8.8, the highest of any coastal listing here, which tracks with direct fjord frontage rather than a set-back garden view further from the water.
House in the Westfjords offers three bedrooms and a garden terrace with sea, lake and mountain views simultaneously, 13 km from Ísafjörður Airport on the same Route 61 stretch as the village's other coastal stays. The washing machine and dishwasher separate it from the smaller apartments on this list, making it the practical pick for a family or group splitting the Westfjords loop into a multi-night stop rather than a single fjordside night. A children's playground and barbecue area round out the outdoor space, both facing the water rather than tucked behind the house on higher ground.
Sea, fjord & mountain view house delivers on its name from a terrace and balcony with all three in frame, 14 km from Ísafjörður Airport, and travelers rated its two-person-trip location 9.5, the highest score of any coastal stay in Súðavík. An outdoor fireplace and seating area extend the fjord view into the evening once the sun drops behind the mountains across Álftafjörður, a detail worth knowing for a September or October stay when that happens well before dinner. The full kitchen and dining area make it workable for a longer stop rather than a single-night pass-through visit.
Súðavík reads as a working fishing village first, a handful of streets running down to the harbour with the Arctic Fox Centre at its edge and Route 61 as the only way in or out by land. The pace slows fast past the village sign: fishing boats come and go with the tide, and the fjord dominates every view once the road drops down from the pass. It is not a place for nightlife or shopping, and locals will say so directly if asked, but it holds a stillness that Ísafjörður, 14 km and a proper town away, does not.
