A small but nice visitor center. There are several exhibits about life on farms and in the fishing industry. You can try seaweed snacks and purchase a few souvenirs. A good stop, especially in bad weather.

The first mini hike today took us along the coast to the "elf library"📚 - two striking rocks (Londrangar) that look like a castle from afar. Many species of birds live on the rocks. 🐦🕊🦅🦤
We continued on to the lighthouse. 🗼The westernmost point had been reached. 🧭
It was storming heavily today. 🌬 🌬🌬
