Tangasporður

Vopnafjörður town is located on Kolbeinstangi peninsula. The outmost part of Kolbeinstangi is called Tangasporður and is not inhabited. The landscape is characterised by unusual rock formations and white sand beaches. There are three small mountains on Tangasporður: Fagrafjall, Miðfell and Tafla.

Enjoy a walk to Tangasporður, preferably by following a track that starts by the crossroads (rd. 85 and 917) above the town. This leads through a small grove and out to the tip of the peninsula. The birdlife is rich in this area, especially on the east side. Seals relaxing in the tidemark are a common sight on the beach at the tip of Tangasporður.

It is also possible to start the walk by turning left off the road to the lighthouse on Kolbeinstangi.
