Æðey (pronounced as /is/) (a.k.a. "Aedey Island") is a small island in the Westfjords region of Iceland.[1] It measures approximately 2by(x), and the highest point is at an elevation of about 180NaN0.
It is inhabited by a single family and is a private family farm focused on environmentally sound eider down farming.[2]
The lighthouse[2] was built in 1944, (operating since 1949) near the southernmost point of the island.
Æðey is important in the history of Iceland and especially of the Westfjords region.
