Saudarkrokur is located on a spot of land that faces the fjord with low ridges closing in behind it. The town itself was actually built onto a raised beach that provides sunbathing and lovely walks and is a perfect place to collect seashells. The small golf course in the city is a great place to enjoy the scenery of the area while having fun playing a few holes. One of the primary attractions of the city though is the Historical House. The House's exhibits show a fascinating collection of historical items. A favorite exhibit at the House is that of the Smithy as it shows the life of an iron monger and his wife as they attempted to merge the two forms of life-that of the farm and of the town-into one. Numerous boat tours leave from the town for those who wish to enjoy the sea around the area. One of the most popular trips is to the close island of Drangey.
