Selvík is a cove on the eastern side of Skagi, about 35 kilometers north of Sauðárkrókur in Skagafjörður, Iceland. The area is home to the best landing on the Skagafjörður county side of the Skagi peninsula and has long been used as a port for fishing expeditions. In the abandoned settlement Selnes, on the northern side of the cove, one can clearly see ruins of fishermen's huts. There would have also been foreign traders operating out of Selvík in centuries past, as the place name Þýskaleiði indicates.
