Snaefellsnes Peninsula Iceland in Miniature

Itinéraire

1. Visit the beautiful Ytri Tunga Beach, famous for its golden sand and friendly seal colony. Unlike most of Iceland’s black beaches, Ytri Tunga offers a rare golden coastline where wild seals rest on the rocks and play in the waves. Your licensed driver-guide will take you to the best viewing spots and share fun facts about these charming Arctic animals and their natural habitat. A perfect stop for nature and photography lovers.

   30 minEntrée incluse

2. The Black Church of Búðir (Búðakirkja) is one of Iceland’s most iconic sights. This small 19th-century wooden church stands alone among lava fields with the ocean on one side and mountains on the other. Its deep-black color creates a striking contrast against the wild Icelandic landscape. A peaceful and timeless place that perfectly captures the spirit of Iceland — simple, powerful, and unforgettable.

   30 minEntrée incluse

3. Arnarstapi is a small coastal village on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula: dramatic sea cliffs, basalt arches , lava shoreline, and a seaside trail to Hellnar. In summer you’ll see seabird colonies; year-round you get wide-open panoramas, a tiny harbor, and the statue of Bardur Snaefellsas. A perfect “short stop with a wow view” in West Iceland.

4. Stone-and-lava monument to the mythical guardian of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula from Icelandic sagas. Set on the Arnarstapi cliff with wide ocean views and dramatic basalt formations, it’s a quick, photogenic stop with a short coastal walk. Local legend says that if you walk past and make a wish at the base of the statue, it will surely come true.

   30 minEntrée incluse

5. A natural basalt arch carved by the ocean into a riddle. Stand at the viewpoint and the shape shifts: some see an elephant, others a bird, or a stone gate to the sea. Take a few steps along the cliff and discover the form that reveals itself to you.

   30 minEntrée incluse

6. Family-run museum on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula dedicated to Iceland’s Greenland shark tradition. See the drying huts, learn how hákarl is fermented and cured, and discover the history of shark fishing in these waters. Short, fascinating stop — with a chance to try a tiny sample if available.

   30 minEntrée incluse

7. Iceland’s most iconic cone-shaped mountain with a twin waterfall in the foreground. Perfect photo angles in any season, mirror reflections on calm days, and a cinematic vibe seen in Game of Thrones. Short, easy walk to the viewpoints.

Près du port, la salle de concert Harpa, aux façades de verre, miroite sur l'eau, et la sculpture Sun Voyager fait face à la mer en direction du mont Esja. Laugavegur, la principale rue commerçante, est bordée de boutiques de design, de cafés et de bars.
