What To Expect
Join this special excursion visiting the two top natural attractions of the Westfjords. Go to the Western-most point of Europe and admire the largest bird cliff of Europe, Látrabjarg. You will make plenty of photo stops during the tour to take in all the beautiful sceneries the area is famous for. Látrabjarg is filled with unspoiled nature and home to the largest seabird colony in Europe. Walk on the edges of the cliff rising up to 440 meters high and look down to the sea tumbling below the rocky cliffs. Next, you will visit Rauðasandur beach, famous for its red colors. After a walk on the beach, you will visit Hnjótur heritage museum to learn more about the Icelandic people and how they used to live.
