The mysteries surrounding the house on Elliðaey Island appeared long ago, spreading rapidly throughout the 2000s and were completely decoded in 2015 by news.com.au. It turned out that the reality was quite cruel because there was nothing scary.

According to the information of many people in the mainland near the island, Elliðaey had several families who lived for hundreds of years from the 18th century but were abandoned since the 1930s.

In the past, the island residents could be said to be very brave because they had to face harsh nature and extreme loneliness. They relied entirely on fishing and hunting ancient antiquated seagulls for food.

By the 1930s, the only five people on the island decided they could no longer stand. The true life on the island is freedom, but if you return to the mainland, they will have a more open future. So the collapsed houses on Elliðaey Island were left behind, soon devastated by nature.

So, where did the small but quite solid white house on Elliáaey Island come from? It was actually built around the 1950s, or 20 years after the island was abandoned, by the Elliáaey Hunting Association. Although the island's living conditions are very difficult for humans, this is a paradise for the ancient group of albatross birds, so it is also ideal for hunting.

To make hunting trips easier, one and only one small white house were built. It seems calm but it is always lack of electricity and water . just a head cover that satisfies the most basic needs. However, the special thing is that this house is fitted with a hot tub with rainwater filter system; Because taking a dip in the bath will be the best reward for a long hunting day.

On the other hand, on the other side, Elliðaey island is home to the crowded ancient seagulls, it also provides shelter for many other seabirds. Therefore, Iceland has officially recognized the island as a nature conservation point protected by the government. Many travel organizations also regularly open tours of Elliðaey Island on the day. But most of the rest of the time, when there were no tourists or hunters, the island was completely alone, without a shadow. It is also one of the most unique points that Icelandic people enjoy about Elliðaey and the white house on the island.
