Sugandisey Island Light Beacon

About the place

Súgandisey is a flat-topped basalt island that shields Stykkishólmur's harbour from the northern swell, linked to town by a short causeway you can walk or drive across. A stepped path with benches climbs to the small red lighthouse on the summit, where the view opens across Breiðafjörður's low islands to the mountains beyond. It is one of the easiest rewarding walks on Snæfellsnes, good at any hour and best under the midnight sun or winter aurora.
