Grand view across breiðafjörður

By the harbour stands the basalt island Súgandisey and shelters the town from the northern wind. Súgandisey is connected to land by a road by the harbour so you can walk or drive to it and park by the island and walk upstairs which lead you up this beautiful cliff.

Other stairs take you further up where you can rest on a bench and have a look at Stykkishólmur from high up.

On top of Súgandisey, you will find a lighthouse from where you can get an even better view. This lighthouse was once located at Grótta in Seltjarnarnes town, which is part of the Great Reykjavík area, but was moved to Súgandisey.
