Arnarstapi, located on the southern side of Iceland’s Snæfellsnes peninsula, is a charming village with a rich history and exciting attractions. It was once a thriving fishing port and trading port under Danish control. Today, it offers visitors the chance to explore its old buildings, including the 1770s Danish Prefect’s Residence. Nature lovers will enjoy the incredible lava fields, beaches, bird sights, rock formations, and dramatic circular stone arch of Gatklettur beckoning nearby. Take a tour of Lóndrangar Basalt Cliffs, visit the old horse trail, and explore Vatnshellir Cave for an unforgettable experience. Arnarstapi even sits at the edge of Snæfellsjökull National Park, home to the breathtaking glacier-covered volcano. With all this to enjoy, there’s no better place to take a break and refuel before exploring the area.
