Karlinn is a roughly 50-metre sea stack just off the coast of Reykjanes. It is part of an old crater rim; a neighbouring formation known as Kerlingin once stood beside it but has since been lost to the sea.
For a broader journey through the region, this stop can be combined with places such as Sky Lagoon and Reykjanes Lighthouse. Access, weather and local conditions can vary during the year, so current information should be checked when planning a visit.
Karlinn is a sea stack left behind as marine erosion cut into the coastal rock.
The rock is a prominent natural landmark along the coast.
Year-round
Karlinn is best viewed from land or another safe viewpoint. Take care near steep cliffs and unstable coastal terrain.
