Beaches
Svalbarð Beach is a coastal or beach area in Northwest Iceland, 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 Hvammstangi and Illugastaðir Coast . 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 North Iceland, combining naturally with other landscape, heritage and travel experiences depending on interests and season.
Respect the wildlife and keep an appropriate distance from seals. Do not approach the animals too closely.
At Svalbarð on the Vatnsnes Peninsula visitors can walk from the parking area down to the coast. The shore provides good opportunities for seal watching. Access is during the summer season.
