Hornvík 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 Bolungarvík and Hælavík. Around Icelandic coasts, always keep a safe distance from strong surf and pay close attention to local conditions.
Hornvík is within the Hornstrandir Nature Reserve and has no road access. Access is by boat or on foot. Extreme caution is required near the cliff edges of Hornbjarg.
Hornvík is a remote bay in the Hornstrandir Nature Reserve between Hornbjarg and Hælavíkurbjarg. The landscape combines coastline, green slopes and enormous sea cliffs. Hornbjarg is an important nesting area for numerous seabirds.
