The Latrabjarg Area

 

Látrabjarg marks the western-most part of Europe. It hosts millions of birds and is vital for their survival as it hosts up to 40% of the world population for some species e.g. the Razorbill. It is Europe's largest bird cliff, 14km long and up to 440m high. See The Bird Cliffs.
Raudisandur is also a unique place to visit and you should allocate time to visit this beautiful hidden secret of Iceland. From Hotel Latrabjarg it takes about 20-30 minutes to drive to Raudisandur.
The spectacular Fjallfoss waterfall at Dynjandi is one of the highlights of the Diamond Circle. It is a must to visit and see with your own eyes. You visit Dynjandi by driving over the Dynjandi pass from the bottom of Arnarfjordur (The direction to Pingeyri and Isafjordur) or from Vatnsfjordur/Flokalundur. After enjoying the beautiful scenery at Dynjandi, you either continue towards Hotel Látrabjarg via Vatnsfjordur and Bardastrond or via Arnarfjordur, Talknafjordur and Patreksfjordur village.
A visit to the harbour in Patreksjordur when the small fishing boats are arriving with the daily catch is worthwhile. A trip to a fishing factory can be arranged and you will be able to purchase some of the world’s very best and freshest fish.
Other places of interest are: Keflavik, Hvalllatrar, Kollsvik, Hnjotur Museum, Selardalur, Hranfseyri museum, Talknafjordur, Arnarfjordur, Bildudalur, Lokinhamrar.
