Beaches
Flateyri Beach is a coastal or beach area in the Westfjords, shaped by open shoreline, sea views and the surrounding landscape. Tides, light and weather can change the character of the coast significantly, making each visit look and feel different. The visit can be combined with Flateyri and Flateyrar Church . Around Icelandic coasts, always keep a safe distance from strong surf and pay close attention to local conditions.
The place can form part of a wider trip through the Westfjords, combining naturally with other landscape, heritage and travel experiences depending on interests and season.
The sandy beach at Flateyri is popular with locals and is especially known for its annual sandcastle competition. The sea is cold, while the beach itself is well suited to recreation and play.
