Tangasporður

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

A walk to Tangasporður is very enjoyable. It is best to fallow a track that starts by the crossroads (rd. 85 and 917) above the town. That way 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, and on the beach on the tip of Tangasporður it is likely to see seals relaxing in the tidemark.

It is also possible to start the walk by turning left off the road to the lighthouse on the east side of the town.
