ATV Tour near Grindavík, Reykjanes Peninsula

5.0 (1 review)

Overview

The town of Grindavík sits on the southern side of the Reykjanes Peninsula, just southwest of Reykjavík. One of the region's highlights is the lava fields that eventually lead to the coast, creating a geologically fascinating lava beach. The best way to explore the area is by ATV or quad, allowing you to see more of the lava sites and reach less accessible parts. 

This tour ventures through the peninsula's historic lava fields, stopping at the old harbor area of Hópsnes. Here, you can see abandoned shipwrecks and the black-sand beach of Selatangar (Seal Bay), which houses fishing huts from the 11th century.
