You’ll leave the Westfjords behind and kick off the day with the Baldur ferry.* It will take you across the Breiðafjörður bay, with a stop on beautiful Flatey, all the way to the village of Stykkishólmur on the Snæfellsnes peninsula. The duration of the ferry ride is about 2 hours and 45 minutes.
If you have time to explore after your arrival in Stykkishólmur, you could spend the afternoon roaming the region's unique sights, including spotting the Snæfellsjökull glacier in Snæfellsjökull National Park, seeing Dritvík Cove and exploring the charming hamlets of Arnarstapi, Hellnar and Búðir.
Spend the night in the Snæfellsnes region.
*In May and September, the Baldur ferry departs only in the evenings. Instead, we recommend that you drive around the bay to Stykkishólmur. The drive adds approximately 280 km (173 mi) to your journey, but it is very scenic.
Driving distance approx. 140 km / 87 mi.
