More about Gardur surfspot
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.
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.
Needs a considerable swell.
Kelp and currents. Drive through Gardur and park near the 2 lighthouses.
