# Borgarnes (ISBOR)

**UN/LOCODE:** ISBOR  
**Country:** Iceland  
**Water Body:** North Atlantic Ocean  
**GPS:** 64.5500, -21.9167

Borgarnes sits at the head of Borgarfjörður on Iceland's west coast, roughly 75 km north of Reykjavik, and carries the UN/LOCODE ISBOR. Its single 50-metre berth lies in a shallow tidal channel that dries to less than 1 metre at low water, limiting access to high-tide windows only. Commercial cargo traffic has been negligible for years; the harbour is mainly used by leisure craft in summer months. For sea freight to or from western Iceland, shippers use nearby Grundartangi (ISGRJ) or Reykjavik (ISREY), both roughly 70–80 km away and managed under Associated Icelandic Ports.
