Icelandic Coastal Wonders
The Westfjords coastline features diverse geological formations, from the 14-kilometer-long Látrabjarg bird cliffs to the distinctive red and golden sands of Rauðasandur. This remote region includes Europe's westernmost point at Bjargtangaviti and the rugged Svalvogar peninsula.
