8. Hafnarberg Sea Cliffs

Important nesting ground for many seabird species, the Hafnarberg Sea Cliffs provide spectacular views of the North Atlantic Ocean. Rising to 40 meters from the sea, these sheer cliffs highlight the unvarnished force of ocean on volcanic rock. Especially in the mating season, a well-kept hiking path along the cliff top offers safe observation places and chances to see the varied bird species. The exposed position of the region makes it a great place to view strong waves slamming against the cliffs during a storm. The website contains details on the local bird species together with their conservation situation. For nature photographers and bird aficionados, this site is very fascinating because of its geological characteristics combined with species.
