Discover Iceland
Óshólaviti is a lighthouse or navigational landmark in the Westfjords, connected with Iceland’s maritime history and coastal travel. Such locations often provide broad views over the sea, headlands and surrounding mountains.
A visit can be combined with Bolungarvík and Ósvör Fishing Station. Around exposed cliffs and coastlines, take care in strong wind, slippery conditions and heavy surf.
For a broader journey through the region, this stop can be combined with places such as Dynjandi and Bolafjall. Access, weather and local conditions can vary during the year, so current information should be checked when planning a visit.
Óshólaviti was built in 1937 on Óshólar below Óshyrna and was electrified in 1964.
