Stapavik Bay
About the place
Stapavík sits on Héraðsflói, at the northern edge of the Borgarfjörður eystri district in East Iceland. It is remembered less for the beach than for its history: from 1930 to 1945 ships landed here to unload goods for farms and villages inland, as part of the region's old sea-trade network. Today it is reached only on foot, along a marked, almost flat trail from Unaós farm that follows the Selfljót river to the sea — about two hours round trip with wide coastal views.
