Raudasandur Day Trip

We'll meet at 9 am at Þórsgata 8a in Patreksfjördur and drive south to Raudasandur, which is known for its red sand. The 30-minute journey offers views of the Patreksfjördur fjord from the minibus.

Raudasandur features over 6 miles (10 kilometers) of reddish-colored sand, contrasted by surrounding black cliffs. You are encouraged to stroll around the beach and take in the scenery. On clear days, the Snæfellsjökull glacier may be visible in the distance. Additionally, seal families can often be seen on the beach.

After visiting the beach and learning about its history, we will return to the starting point, concluding our day trip at around 2 pm.
