Stakksey Lighthouse

Stakksey Lighthouse, perched on a grassy cliff overlooking the deep blue waters of Stykkishólmur, is a stunning sight. Stykkishólmur is known for being one of the oldest fishing villages in Iceland. You can climb to the top of the lighthouse and have a breathtaking view of the tiny island off the coast, Koltur. From the lighthouse, you can also see the picturesque Esja Mountains in the distance. Stakksey Lighthouse offers a unique glimpse into the culture and history of the area. The cluster of red buildings, including the café and museum, offer interesting insights into the community and the lighthouse's days of service. The surrounding cliff and shoreline provide a beautiful backdrop for a walk, with plenty of site birds to spot. There is a beach just a few steps away, providing perfect conditions for relaxing by the sea and enjoying the coastline views.
