7Ytri Tunga Beach
One of very few places to spot seals in West Iceland and by far the best one. It is difficult to say if the seals here at Ytri Tunga are more curious or the people watching them. On a sunny day they can bee seen laying on the rocks relaxing and enjoying the sun and on a windy day more oftern swimming so close to the beach that you feel youy can almost reach out and pat them on the head.
