Ketubjörg
About
Ketubjörg are impressive sea cliffs in Skagafjörður, Iceland, just south of the abandoned farm Keta on the Skagi peninsula. The cliffs were formed from the remains of an ice age volcano the that the sea has eroded, resulting in rock pillar formations and a large cleft in the rocks.
A unique Icelandic experience. Worth your time.
