Gardur surf guide

Surf: Gardur is the tip of the Reykjanes peninsula and has 2 sides that can be surfed, giving some flexibility with the wind. Needs a considerable swell to swing around the corner and get the better north-facing reefs working in SW winds. Big outside lefts remain unridden but smaller soft-shouldered A-frames form up in front of the little harbour and are better at higher tides. Access: Needs a considerable swell. Directions: Drive through keflavik and head to the town Gardur. Basically drive through the town and go as far West as you possibly can. At the end there are 2 lighthouses and you are there. Environment: Kelp and currents. Drive through Gardur and park near the 2 lighthouses.
